Share The Good News

Reflection Time
In John 6:35, Jesus Christ says, "I am the bread of life; he who comes to Me will not hunger, and he who believes in Me will never thirst." At the Last Supper, He instructs His disciples to, "Take and eat; this is my body", as He breaks bread with them. Why is Christ "bread" for us - what is Christ telling you about the role He wants to play in your life?
