Your Daily Bread
"Jesus said to them, 'I am the bread of life. He who coms to Me shall never hunger.'" John 6:35 NKJV
After World War II, Europe was devastated with hungry, homeless children who had been orphaned by the battles. They were put in large camps where they were given food and care. Yet they didn't sleep well at night; they were nervous, fearful, and fidgety. The caregivers were baffled until a psychologist taught them to offer each child a piece of bread every night, not to eat, but to hold in bed. The outcome was astonishing. The children slept through the night because they realized they wouldn't go hungry the next day. Clutching the bread gave them a sense of protection (they were safe), importance (somebody cared about them), and happiness (there will be more bread tomorrow). Those three things were what those children needed--and they are what you need too, And all three can be found in a relationship with Jesus. When He said, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger," He was saying, "I am to your soul what food is to your body." Bread is one thing most of us in common. It doesn't belong only to a particular region or nation. It's available in all shapes and sizes. In the UK, it may be scones; in South America, tortillas; in New York, bagels; and in Ethiopia, injera. In a simple statement, Jesus reminds us that He is our nourishment, everywhere, every time. So, be sure to read your Bible every day; it's your daily bread.
