A Collect of Thanks for Jesus’ Giving of Himself

Living bread, who came from heaven to give yourself for our sake, we bow before you in humility and gratitude for your graciousness toward us. May our hearts be ever thankful for the sacrifice of your flesh and the life that it brings us in reconciliation with you and the Father through the Holy Spirit. Amen. “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” – John 6:51
