John 6:35-40The Message (MSG)

^35-38 Jesus said, “I am the Bread of Life. The person who aligns with me hungers no more and thirsts no more, ever. I have told you this explicitly because even though you have seen me in action, you don’t really believe me. Every person the Father gives me eventually comes running to me. And once that person is with me, I hold on and don’t let go. I came down from heaven not to follow my own whim but to accomplish the will of the One who sent me.
^39-40 “This, in a nutshell, is that will: that everything handed over to me by the Father be completed—not a single detail missed—and at the wrap-up of time I have everything and everyone put together, upright and whole. This is what my Father wants: that anyone who sees the Son and trusts who he is and what he does and then aligns with him will enter real life, eternal life. My part is to put them on their feet alive and whole at the completion of time.”

For Reflection

Are you aligned with Jesus?  Do you put your beliefs where your action is?  Do you act in love?  Do you forgive?  Are you humble.  Are you hospitable?  Do you have unreasonable trust in God.  Are you at peace with all of this, or are you nervous and fearful and still feel the pressing need to take matters into your own hands?

Pray

Having declared your belief in God and in the life that was and is Jesus the Christ, pray to remain in an intimate relationship with God.
