JOHN 6:35
by Tiffany Nicole Fletcher

When you see that your hunger cannot be quenched
apart from Me,
you will not seek after other water
after other food.

There is an open invitation
to come
to drink
to be nourished—
to feel the pleasure of being satisfied,
to find what you have been seeking.

Show Me another food or drink
that could fill your deepest hunger, forever;
show Me something else that can give you real life.
Show Me a body of grace,
given for you,
broken to show you love—
show Me blood that can mend your past.
All that you need, I have already provided.
Come to Me.

 

Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. (John 6:35 NIV)
