Day 6 of 30 · John 6

To whom would we go?

“Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.”

John 6:68 · World English Bible

He feeds five thousand, and the next day tells the crowd the bread they should want is him. It's a hard saying, and many who had followed him walk away. Peter stays — not because he understands, but because he knows there's nowhere better to go. There will be days like that. Following Jesus sometimes means not understanding, and staying anyway.

ONE LINE TO PRAY

Lord, when I don't understand, keep me close.
