When by his grace we are enabled to live a life of faith in the Son of God, holy tempers follow, and acceptable services may be done. God, even his Father, who gave their fathers that food from heaven to support their natural lives, now gave them the true Bread for the salvation of their souls.

Bread nourishes only by the powers of a living body; but Christ is himself living Bread, and nourishes by his own power.
