The Bread Of Life
I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 11th of January, 2023, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
“How sweet are Your words to my taste, Sweeter than honey to my mouth!”
Psalm 119:103
“I am the living bread which came down from heaven.”
John 6:51
Now, you know, I am a beekeeper, an amateur beekeeper. I love bees and I love honey. I hope you do as well because it is very good for you. Even as I am sharing this with you, my mouth is watering. To walk through the kitchen door on a cold frosty morning, and my wife, Jill, has got the big wood stove going, and she is baking fresh bread, and when the bread comes out and it is hot, it is beautiful to cut a thick slice and then take some of our farm butter and spread it thickly over the warm bread, and then to take some honey and just pour it all over the bread, and then cut it after giving thanks to the Lord. Eating it just does something for the inside of a man.
I want to say to you today that our Lord Jesus Christ is the Bread of Life. There is nothing sweeter to me than the Holy Word of God. When the Lord speaks to me, every single morning, it is exactly like that honey. It is sweet, it comforts me sometimes when I am sad, it gives me direction sometimes when I am not too sure where I am going, but most of all it is a friend to me that sticks closer than a brother.
Jesus is the Word. I want to say to you today to take some of that honey, and don’t just do it now and again, do it regularly. It is good for your constitution. Eat some of that beautiful fresh bread from Heaven and butter it liberally with beautiful thick farm butter. I want to tell you it will last you right through the day. Get into a habit of doing it every single morning and you will find that your day will go so much better.
Have a wonderful day,
Jesus bless you and goodbye.
