Those who had anyone sick with various kinds of diseases brought them to Jesus, and laying His hands on each one, He healed them. (Luke 4:40)

You are the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is Your flesh, which You have given for the life of the world. (John 6:51)

MY RESPONSE TO YOU, LORD
