John 6:33 “For the bread of God is the bread that comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.” San Francisco Boudin sourdough bread is undoubtedly the most popular sourdough bread in the world. If you were told to buy a loaf and you would have eternl life and the statement was true–wouldn’t you buy at least one loaf and wait with major anticipation for it to be shipped to you? You might even drive or fly to San Francisco to buy a loaf. Do you live with such anticipation in studying God’s Word where the Bread of Life can truly be found?

John 6:35 “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.'” Jesus states the truth very simply. He says–I am. He says–never go hungry, never be thirsty. Anyone who believes those simple words will have peace on earth and enjoy eternity in Heaven. Why so many make this truth so difficult is so foolish. Believe–the truth is wonderful and simple. Have a great weekend.

John 6:27 “Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you.” We, in America enjoy the benefits of living in a country where richness abounds. We can easily succumb to a life which puts eternity and our Heavenly Father secondary and pleasures on this earth as primary. Let’s not let that happen. Let’s listen to the wisdom of our Savior through the words of His servant John. I am sad to tell you one of the guys at our Lighthouse ministry was sentenced yesterday to 5 years in prison. Please pray that he faithfully continues serving his Heavenly Father and is safe as he serves his sentence.

—– Forwarded Message —– From: Richard Waldschmidt Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2023 at 10:07:54 AM EDTSubject: Amazing John 6:13 “So they gathered them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.” Two small fish and five small barley loaves—-maybe enough to feed a couple for dinner or lunch. But, 5000 people were fed with 12 baskets gathered after all had eaten. Jesus was just a philosopher in His time? Impossible!! Only God could perform such a miracle. How beautiful it is to have Jesus walk at your and my side!

John 6:5-6 “When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, ‘Where should we buy bread for these people to eat?’ He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.” Does God ever test your and my insecurities? God constantly reminds us—Trust me. But do we many times try and solve our problems and forget our problem solving God walks by our side? God tells us to use our God given talents, but always remember, He is constantly at our side—live with that confidence.
