Here’s a reflection on John 6, where Jesus describes himself as the Bread of Life. It was written by Bruce Prewer.
Gospel Reflection
(inspired by John 6)
Much more of soft bread
much-loved by the world
and sweet on the tongue
and we shall be dead.
Much more of this bread
fresh from the baking
and scenting the air
and we shall be dead.
Much more of this bread
though it come to us
packaged and sliced
and we shall be dead.
Yet a crust of Christ’s bread
with the meek and poor
who dare to adore
and death is no more.
