“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life.” – John 6:47
Meditation:
Today, Christ reminds us that belief is more than an idea. It’s a life of obedience, thankfulness, and trust in the One who gives the Bread of Life. He gives Himself to those who hunger not only for miracles but for Him. Everlasting life is not a reward we earn—it is a gift given to those who walk in faithful communion with the Son of Man.
Early Church Fathers’ Saying:
“In this way the faithful are approved and the faithless are detected.” — St. Cyprian of Carthage
Practical Practice:
Let your life preach louder than your words. Be light to the doubting. Be bread to the hungry. The Bread of Life is given to those who follow the Son of Man with a faithful heart.
Speak and act with grace.
Let someone see Christ through you—at home, at work, or even through a small act of love.
Closing Blessing
O Christ, Bread of Life, Feed us with Your truth. Let us not hunger for the world, but for You—who satisfy the soul. Let our belief be shown in action, and our faith become the path to eternity. Amen.
Christ lifts His eyes with a Father’s care—seeing our need before we speak. Like Philip, we may not know how, but Jesus already knows what He will do. A short meditation from John 6:1–14.
Christ’s peace is not the absence of hardship, but the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. When we feel disturbed, His peace calms our soul, roots us in His love, and lifts us toward heaven.
Jesus lifted His eyes to heaven before His Passion, showing us how to surrender. Let your repentance in confession be your own lifting—into mercy, not shame.
Our Lord exhorts us to be true ministers of justice and mercy. Like the noble preachers of old, we are called to defend the poor, the widow, and the orphan.
