Eucharistic Bread

~~~ Acts 8: 26-40 ~~~ Psalm 66 ~~~ John 6: 44-51 ~~~

Responding to the angel of the Lord, Philip heads into the desert area of Gaza. God’s plan was for Philip to encounter one Ethiopian eunuch, instruct him and to baptize him. As they came out of the water, God snatched Philip from the side of the eunuch. They did not see each other again. Sometimes God does put people in our lives for only a short period of time. Everyone in your life is there for a reason, not just the people you like. Surprise!

Imitate the psalmist; cry out to God with joy for what he has done for you. Give him praise for he has given you life.

More importantly if we believe in the words of the Father he will draw us to himself. He promises to raise us up on the last day.

The Bread of Life come down from heaven will sustain us for all of eternity.

The Eucharistic Bread, the Flesh of Jesus, is given for the life of the whole world. For God truly does have the whole world in his hands.

Yesterday he told us not to worry, he is watching over us. He has provided himself to dine upon. The bread that was once broken becomes the bread of life for all ages and all peoples.

Take heart...be not afraid...I am with you.

Today say a pray for those who do not believe in the Bread of Life.

May God bless their lives as only he can.
