35 Jesus replied, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty. 36 But you haven’t believed in me even though you have seen me. 37 However, those the Father has given me will come to me, and I will never reject them. 38 For I have come down from heaven to do the will of God who sent me, not to do my own will. 39 And this is the will of God, that I should not lose even one of all those he has given me, but that I should raise them up at the last day. 40 For it is my Father’s will that all who see his Son and believe in him should have eternal life. I will raise them up at the last day.”
41 Then the people began to murmur in disagreement because he had said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.” 42 They said, “Isn’t this Jesus, the son of Joseph? We know his father and mother. How can he say, ‘I came down from heaven’?”

Are you hungry? Thirsty? Perhaps you are going to the things of the world for sustenance instead of Jesus! The peace, acceptance, joy, and love that humanity seems to be constantly be searching for is right in front of us, just like it was right in front of the people in Jesus's day.

It is God's will that ALL who see JESUS and BELIEVE in him should have ETERNAL LIFE! Jesus will raise them up at the last day! It is not God's will that any who see Jesus are lost.
