There is a degree to which we readily assent to our embrace of God's love, or rather to the fact that we have been embraced by that love. However, in looking at a couple of passages of scripture, this message considers Jesus' taking and offering of bread as a template for gaining a deeper understanding of who we are in Christ, how God thinks about us, and how he desires to offer each and every one of us as bread for a hungry world. 

There is no better word of encouragement when you are struggling with doubt, when you are struggling with the need for reassurance, when you feel like giving up, than to remember that Jesus is the Son of God through whom God has spoken to us concerning his intentions for us, his purposes and his promises.
