John 6:35-40
The food and drink analogy in John’s Gospel is to present Jesus as the one, the only one needed to gain eternal life. It is God’s will that everyone believe. The crowd’s initial misunderstanding, in reality unbelief, is proof that they see what they want to see, not what is really real.
I can understand what it is to see only what I want to see. Believing can be difficult, even scary. I pray for clarity and courage.
