John 6 continues to be one of my favorite chapters in all of Scripture. Every time I read it, I discover another glorious truth to meditate on and enjoy. Only Jesus can truly satisfy. I have chased after other things, only to find them empty, which has left me feeling famished. I am grateful that He forgives my seasons of waywardness and wandering, and I recognize that even as I follow Him, it is because of His great pursuit of me. I am thankful to know Him and to have a place at His table, where there is always enough bread to spare. He is lovely and absolutely breathtaking—His body, His blood. I love Him and am deeply grateful for His immense love for us.
His pursuit of us encourages my heart because I'm reminded that He rescued me--a child from a broken home and an abusive upbringing. Oh, that we would grow every hungrier for Him!
Tammy, as soon as I spotted the title, the old hymn Break Thou the Bread of Life came soaring right back into my mind again. Thank You, Jesus, for who You are and what You've accomplished for us. We love you so.

Hi Linda,
I wasn't familiar with that hymn and discovered a beautiful rendition on YouTube. I thought you might enjoy it, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQpj4TSe-Ec
