Living bread

I was just reading Jesus the Christ. There is a passage of scripture quoted where Jesus compares himself to manna, saying thatched the living bread. My mind started to expand on that thought. Manna kept the children of Israel alive in the wilderness by feeding them daily. So how can Christ be like that to my spirit? I need to be nourished, but how do I do that? Eating is easy. Spiritually feeding ourselves is trickier. But the parallel can help. In order to eat, you have to get the food. I need to have access to knowledge of Christ. I have scriptures, church magazines, prayer, church meetings, friends who share their faith with me, etc. But good does no good in the pantry. You have to eat it. I need to always remember Christ. I need to read and study His words. I need to listen to His prophet. I need to ask for His help and use the help that He gives. Yes, Jesus is living bread. But I have to eat it for it to do me any good.
