"In each of our lives Jesus comes as the bread of life—--to be eaten, to be consumed by us. This is how he loves us. Then Jesus comes in our human life as the hungry one, the other, hoping to be fed with the bread of our life, our hearts by loving, and our hands by serving. In loving and serving, we prove that we have been created in the likeness of God, for God is love and when we love we are like God."
- Mother Teresa
But I have never been so starving in my whole life. How can you say that you are all I need, how can you say that you will provide for me, and that I won't go hungry, when I feel like I've been fasting for six long years? Why must I provide for you when I am a broken, poor, starving child?
