"Flesh Eaters & Blood Drinkers" John 6 - part 2

So let me get this straight. Jesus escapes a crowd after feeding all of them because they want to make him king. But when he tells them that the work of God is to believe the one He sent, they clam up:

"What miraculous sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? Our forefathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"

AH!!! DIDN'T HE JUST FEED 5,000??? Actually, how many times have we done this? We come back from an awesome retreat, camp, or other sort of meeting and we're SO excited about serving Jesus. But the conviction we had during that time fades so quickly. Jesus gives the solution to this at the end of this part: We need to constantly live on Jesus. Every breath, meal, beverage needs to be done for him and through him. We need to be so consumed with him that we eat his flesh and drink his blood. He doesn't want part of our lives, he wants all of it!
