Christ, Though Absent, has not Deserted Us
John 6:14-21
Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, said, This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.…


Jesus was absent all the while. He leaveth them, as it were, in the suburbs of hell. Howbeit as the eagle when she flieth highest of all from the nest doth ever cast a jealous eye upon her young, so doth this heavenly eagle.

(J. Trapp.)
