Jn 5: 35-40
In today's Gospel, Jesus reveals that He is the bread of life--our hope, our sustenance, our way to eternal life. To know this and to believe in Him means never to "hunger" or "thirst" because those who believe will receive all that the Father has for us.
It's difficult in this day and age to keep our focus on what awaits us if we come to Jesus. We live very much in the age of instant gratification and seek immediate results. However, when our lives are lived in faith for those around us, sharing the love and grace Jesus gives us as well as His word, we glorify Him and feel His presence in our lives until the day when we will be with Him.
Jesus, help us when we are weak to be strengthened always by our faith in you.
