Proverbs 9:1-6. Ephesians 5:15-20, John 6:51-58

It is the will and loving purpose of the Father that you receive the power of self-giving and sacrifice, the life that is triumphant over death, and union with Him in time and through eternity. Come to me, sons and daughters of your loving heavenly Father, feed on Me in faith and trust and absolute self-giving. I am the living Bread which came down from Heaven at the appointing of the Lord of All and gives abundant life to each and every one who takes me into every part of their being. I bring to life eternal, sustain and give progress in the Way and to the Presence of the Father all who are in Me and I in them; and I fulfil in them the good purpose of the Father’s perfect will as they continue faithful.

And so I say to every one of the Father’s beloved sons and daughters in every place and race place and time and dispensation. I am the living Bread which has come down from heaven. ‘Anyone who eats this Bread will live for ever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh for the life of the world (John 6:51). Then take and eat in faith and trust and absolute self-giving.
