Psalms 119:11
119:11 In my heart I store up your words,
so I might not sin against you.
Jeremiah 15:16
15:16 As your words came to me I drank them in,
and they filled my heart with joy and happiness
because I belong to you.
John 6:53-63
6:53 Jesus said to them, “I tell you the solemn truth,
unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood,
you have no life
in yourselves.
6:54 The one who eats
my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
6:55 For my flesh is true
food, and my blood is true
drink.
6:56 The one who eats
my flesh and drinks my blood resides in me, and I in him.
6:57 Just as the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so the one who consumes
me will live because of me.
6:58 This
is the bread that came down from heaven; it is not like the bread your ancestors
ate, but then later died.
The one who eats
this bread will live forever.”
