Today’s first reading is of the stoning to death of Stephen. He quoted Psalms and Jesus with “into your hands I commend my spirit. He was a martyr. In the gospel, Jesus was asked to provide for the people like Moses did in the desert and Jesus said that His Father provided. He said”I am the bread of life;whoever comes to me will never hunger,and whoever believes in me will never thirst.” Amen! I pray for all those searching for fulfillment in their lives, that they will find Jesus. It is still the Easter season! Amen! Alleluia! Jesus is risen!
