In today's Gospel reading from John 6, Jesus said to the crowds, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me will never hunger, and whoever believes in me will never thirst." Of course, Jesus was not referring to physical hunger and thirst. Our most fundamental hunger and thirst are spiritual hunger and thirst. Once you go to him and believe in him, you are fulfilled at the soul level and your physical and thirst are taken care of by him as well. If you are not fulfilled spiritually, you can eat and drink all you want and will still be unsatisfied.
