Latest / Why I Believe / Faithful Friday #5: The Bread of Life
Transcript
- 0:00Faithful Friday.
- 0:01Today we'll spend a few moments in scripture, reflection, and prayer.
- 0:05If you're driving or unable to pause right now, simply listen and come back to this reflection later when you can give it your full attention.
- 0:13Today's scripture comes from the Gospel of John, chapter 6, verses 35 through 40.
- 0:20Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life, and he who comes to me shall not hunger, and he who believes in me shall never thirst.
- 0:30But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe.
- 0:34All that the Father gives me will come to me, and him who comes to me I will not cast out.
- 0:40For I have come down from heaven not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.
- 0:46And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up at the last day.
- 0:54For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him
- 0:59should have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
- 1:06The reflection question for today is what am I feeding my soul with each day?
- 1:13I'm going to invite you to pause this recording now, to spend a few moments talking with God about what you heard, ask him what he wants you to understand, where he is calling you
- 1:22to grow, and what step he wants you to take next.
- 1:26When you're ready, come back and we'll close together in prayer.
- 1:35Welcome back.
- 1:36Let's pray the prayer Jesus taught us.
- 1:39Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
- 1:48Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
- 2:00Amen.
- 2:02As you go into your day, carry the scripture with you.
- 2:05Ask yourself, this week, where do you see God showing up in your life?
- 2:10Thank you for joining me for Faithful Friday.
- 2:12I'll see you next week.
