John 6:25-35

When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him,
"Rabbi, when did you come here?"  Jesus answered them, "Very truly, I tell
you, you are looking for me, not because you saw signs, but because you
ate your fill of the loaves.  Do not work for the food that perishes, but
for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give
you.  For it is on him that God the Father has set his seal."  Then they
said to him, "What must we do to perform the works of God?"  Jesus
answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he
has sent."  So they said to him, "What sign are you going to give us then,
so that we may see it and believe you?  What work are you performing?  Our
ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, 'He gave them
bread from heaven to eat.'"  Then Jesus said to them, "Very truly, I tell
you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my
Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.  For the bread of God is
that which comes down from heaven and gives life to the world."  They said
to him, "Sir, give us this bread always."

Jesus said to them, "I am the bread of life.  Whoever comes to me will
never be hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
