Seek the Words of Eternal Life

The crowd that has been following Jesus has become more and more offended and agitated as Jesus has talked about his role as the bread of life.  With today's text, most of the crowd turns and walks away.  Jesus asks the 12 disciples if they too want to leave Jesus.  Peter replies, "Of course not, where else can we go?  You have the words of eternal life".  When we have questions, and our doubts arise, Peter's words can reaffirm our wavering faith.  Gospel reading:  John 6:56-69
