Jesus said, "I am the living bread which has come down from Heaven . Anyone who eats this bread will live for ever, and the bread which I shall give him is My flesh,
for the life of the world"
John 6:50-51


In the simple, basic, homespun food I am made manifest and received for the soul's sustenance in the group which meets to commemorate My saving act in faithfulness and self-giving. And the soul of each who receives in faith and trust and in the perfection afforded him as he offers his frailty and failures of the past becomes the Kingdom from which the Father reigns. According to the measure of self-giving love received and dispensed by each beloved, committed child of the Father I operate, indwell, guard, guide and lead into life eternal. So the simple, basic material of human sustenance becomes the means of growth into eternity, the bridge to the Father's Kingdom of light and love and joy even in this mortal life. And when sorrow and loss and sadness come, a sense of failure and that sense of separation from meaning and reality which it is sometimes given to the Saints to share with Me for love's sake, when these overtake the soul of the committed in love, they will not overcome, but serve to strengthen and inspire to deeper self-giving in and through My Indwelling Presence . For am I not in them and they in Me, and all one in the Father?
