Daily Devotions for Friday 22nd September, 2023

Morning
Look Upward and Pray to hear and receive from Jesus

Reading : JOHN chapter 6 verses 25-59

Meditation : take time and consider all that is said here
The Bread of Life!

What images or words stay with you?
What is God teaching/reminding you?
Where are you feeding at this time?

And then Pray with words of hunger to this God of ours in response

Happy are those who have the God of Jacob to help them
and who depend on the LORD their God,
the Creator of heaven, earth, and sea,
and all that is in them.
He always keeps his promises;
He judges in favour of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry

And so we ask, Holy Spirit,
Create in us a deeper longer
A greater hunger
For Jesus
The Bread of Life
Amen – we pray together.
