Bread from Heaven

Lectio:
Jn 6:41-51

The Jews murmured about Jesus because he said,
“I am the bread that came down from heaven, ”
and they said,
“Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph? 
Do we not know his father and mother? 
Then how can he say,
‘I have come down from heaven’?” 
Jesus answered and said to them,
“Stop murmuring among yourselves. 
No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draw him,
and I will raise him on the last day. 
It is written in the prophets:
They shall all be taught by God.
Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me. 
Not that anyone has seen the Father
except the one who is from God;
he has seen the Father. 
Amen, amen, I say to you,
whoever believes has eternal life. 
I am the bread of life. 
Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died;
this is the bread that comes down from heaven
so that one may eat it and not die. 
I am the living bread that came down from heaven;
whoever eats this bread will live forever;
and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world.”

Studio:

The Jews are complaining because they don't know what Jesus
is talking about.  He's not bread.  He's not manna that came down
from heaven.  Jesus is prophesying that He is the Eucharist.  It is
a hard saying.

Meditatio:

Funny that the Jews focus on Jesus saying that He came down from
heaven.  Don't all babies come down from heaven?  Nothing happens 
without the Will of the Father.

Oratio: 

Lord Jesus, You are the living bread given to us, a hungry people.  Help
us all to see You as You are in the Eucharist.

Contemplatio:

Thank you for the gift of Yourself, Jesus. Thank you for the gift of Faith

Resolutio:

I will continue to pray for more Faith
