“Then Jesus declared, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty’”(John 6:35)
Jewish leaders have long recognized the significance of bread, or manna, as spiritual food. Jesus’s declaration is truly remarkable and profoundly influences our relationship with him. Just as physical food is essential for the body to thrive—a primary focus for those born of the flesh—spiritual food is vital for a fulfilling life. One cannot survive without nourishment, as food provides the strength and sustenance necessary for health and growth. Without it, life is at risk.
In much the same way, individuals require spiritual nourishment to lead vibrant and enriching lives. A lack of this sustenance leads to spiritual death—the disconnection from God. Jesus, however, assures us that he is the source of life for the world, emphasizing that without him, spiritual nourishment is unattainable. In his absence, chaos and afflictions can overwhelm our lives, underscoring the importance of Jesus in our existence.
A life without Jesus results in severe separation from God. In contrast, Jesus imparts the very life of God, enabling us to thrive without want—whether physical or spiritual. He promises that by embracing his life, we shall never experience true hunger, which signifies the realization of our purpose. God provides abundantly for everyone who possesses everlasting life, offering good health, wealth, wisdom, power, honor, glory, and praise—blessings that surpass human understanding.
Many may perceive God’s provision as simply sustenance, but Jesus reminds us that it transcends mere meat and drink. His supernatural life allows us to flourish in the abundance of grace (Matthew 6:33).
