I am the bread of life. Though your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, they died. But here you have the bread from heaven, so that you may
eat of it, and not die. I am the living bread from heaven; whoever eats of this bread will live forever. The bread I shall give is my flesh, and I will
give it for the life of the world.”
Reflection:
How wonderful it is to be taught by God, if possible,
every moment of our lives! But the truth is, God is indeed,
teaching us every moment; only that we fail to learn. If only we
nurture within us the trait of teachability can we recognize
the teachings of God that come our way. This teachability is all
about an attitude of openness, vulnerability, as defines John
Maxwell, a leadership expert: “Teachability is not so
much about competence and mental capacity as it is
about attitude. It is the desire to listen, learn, and apply. It
is the hunger to discover and grow. It is the willingness to
learn, unlearn, and relearn.” In other words, it is the
vulnerable openness to the movements of Grace. Such
teachability brings us to God as well.
