JESUS IS LORD. ALWAYS!

Come and eat fresh whole wheat bread without cost.

"Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst."   (John 6: 35).

The Bread we receive in Holy Communion is exactly what is promised:  Jesus Christ. Jesus is the genuine Bread of life.  Under the appearance of bread and wine, He  gives us Himself in the Eucharist. That this is the constant teaching of the Church from the days of Acts 2: 42 to this day is a miracle. "They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers."  (Acts 2: 42). Unless this sublime truth of our faith was guaranteed by God Himself, It would have been lost.  Thank You Abba Father.

Jesus fed 4000 people with seven loaves and a few fish. They all ate and were satisfied with plenty leftover.  "They ate and were satisfied."  (Mark 8:  8). 

Only Christ the Bread of life who knows exactly what we need and when we need it can perform such a miracle.  Remember the Wedding Feast at Canna? (John 2: 2 - 5). The people drank the best wine until they could drink no more.

Jesus fulfilled admirably the prophecy in Isaiah 55: 1 - 3).
"All you who are thirsty,
come to the water!
You who have no money, come, buy grain and eat;
Come, buy grain without money,
wine and milk without cost!"  (Isaiah 55: 1).

The Miracle of the feeding of 4000 people prefigures the Eucharist. 
"I am the living bread that came down from heaven.  Whoever eats this bread will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”  (John 6: 51)

Every single day, Jesus continues to feed millions of people with the finest wheat, the Bread of life.   (John 6 : 35;  Matthew 26: 26; 1 Corinthians 11: 24)

"He fed them with the finest wheat
and satisfied them with honey from the rock."  (Cf.  Psalm 81: 17 RM)
