1. The bread of God (30-35)

The crowd quoted the Bible. Moses gave the people bread--so Jesus should too. Jesus taught them the real meaning of the scripture they quoted: God is the one who gives the true bread of heaven. The bread he was now giving to the world was Jesus, the Bread of life. Jesus was sent by God to give life to the world. Man's real hunger is not physical--it is spiritual, and God alone can satisfy that hunger.

2. My Father's will (36-40)

Jesus could have been instantly popular if he had done what the crowd wanted. But he did not come to do his own will--or even the will of the crowd. He came to do the Father's will. And what is God's will? It is to give eternal life to everyone who looks to Jesus and believes in him.

Application: Lord, thank you for not casting out anyone who comes to you. Thank you for your sure promise of life and of deep satisfaction of soul. I believe your promise, and I come to you to be filled.
One Word: Jesus is the Bread of life
