10th Sunday After Pentecost

John 6:41-51

We ate from the manna
Provided
For all to eat
When the people were in need
And were filled.
We were given the land
And the knowledge
To make our people Great
And were filled.
We were given the word
Sustaining us
Through time of hardship
Forgotten too often
Through times of prosperity
It added a richness
--to our lives
a wholeness
without which
--we would not exist
and we were filled.
We hunger Lord
For the living Bread
That will sustain us
Through hardship and prosperity,
We long to come to You
Drawn by
The love that has been
And the love that lives now
Eternal
And to be full.
