Daily Bread, reading 21 of 30
John 6:35-40
And Jesus said to them: I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger: and he that believeth in me shall never thirst. But I said unto you, that you also have seen me, and you believe not. All that the Father giveth to me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me, I will not cast out. Because I came down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him that sent me. Now this is the will of the Father who sent me: that of all that he hath given me, I should lose nothing; but should raise it up again in the last day. And this is the will of my Father that sent me: that every one who seeth the Son, and believeth in him, may have life everlasting, and I will raise him up in the last day.
John 6:35-40 Douay-Rheims
A thought
Jesus says he is the bread of life, and then says he will lose none of those given to him. This is a promise, not a demand. Notice the repeated phrase: raise up.
A question
What are you hungry for that has not been satisfied?
