We spend so much of our lives chasing things we want—comfort, control, relationships, success, security—believing they’ll finally give us the life we’re looking for. But even when we get them, they can leave us wanting more. In Part 1 of our I AM series, we explore Jesus’ words, “I am the bread of life,” and discover the difference between what we want and what we truly need. Jesus doesn’t simply offer us something better to chase—He offers us Himself as the source and sustenance of real life. 

Questions for Reflection:
• What are you currently treating as a need that may actually be a want?
• What is feeding your faith right now, and how might you return to Jesus as your source?
