The Eternal Food


So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum looking for Jesus. When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?" Jesus answered them, "Very truly, I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For it is on him that God the Father has set his seal."

Then they said to him, "What must we do to perform the works of God?" Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent." So they said to him, "What sign are you going to give us then, so that we may see it and believe you? What work are you performing? Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'" Then Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. For the bread of God is that which comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." They said to him, "Sir, give us this bread always." Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.

John 6:24-35

 

Grace

ENSTROM, Eric

1918

Photograph

Bovey, Minnesota

United States

 

Grace is a 1918 photograph by Eric Enstrom. It depicts an elderly man, Charles Wilden, with hands folded, saying a prayer over a table with a simple meal. It was taken in Bovey, Minnesota.  Originally black-and-white, the photo was colorized by hand by Enstrom's daughter, Rhoda Nyberg. It was this colorized version that attained widespread distribution. In 2002, an act of the Minnesota State Legislature established it as the state photograph. It is featured on road signs in Bovey.

There are people in the world so hungry,

that God cannot appear to them except in the form of bread.

~ Mahatma Gandhi

 

 

 

 

Hunger of the body is altogether different 

from the shallow, daily hunger of the belly.

Those who have known this kind of hunger 

cannot entirely love, ever again, those who have not.

~ Barbara Kingsolver, The Poisonwood Bible

QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix

barcode (or two-dimensional barcode).  A barcode is a machine-readable optical label

that contains information about the item to which it is attached.

The QR code was scanned to install Aurasma on iPads and iPhones which allow

the viewer to view hidden information and videos within the art pieces.
