19th Sunday In Ordinary Time


Reflection:

"In today's Gospel, Jesus declares, 'I am the bread of life' (John 6:48). He invites us to come to him and find sustenance for our spiritual journey. Just as bread nourishes our bodies, Jesus nourishes our souls. Yet, the crowd grumbles, struggling to accept Jesus' claim. They see him as just a human being, not the divine bread of life.

"A young girl once struggled to understand the concept of the Eucharist. But one day, while receiving Communion, she felt a deep sense of peace and love. In that moment, she realized that Jesus was truly present in the bread, nourishing her soul.

"May we approach Jesus with open hearts and minds, recognizing him as the bread of life. May we receive him with faith and gratitude, allowing him to nourish us on our spiritual journey. Let us embrace his divine presence and find sustenance in his love."
