Jesus’ resurrected body was hungry—a literal hunger, not a symbolic hunger. We know this because his disciples gave him food and watched him eat it, further proof that Jesus had been raised from the dead. He wasn’t a ghost or a vision because ghosts and visions don’t eat tangible food.
Jose pointed out in his sermon on Sunday that Jesus asking his disciples for food and them giving him fish was a reminder of when Jesus fed the five thousand, also reminding us that he provides for our every need. My whole life, I’ve had everything I need. I could attribute it to chance, or I could attribute it to God. James 1:17 says, “Every good and perfect gift is from above”. For me that is every breath that I breath, each days sunrise, clothes, a roof over my head, caring friends, a church that I can run after God with, My family that I love so dearly, and so many other things that without God would just seem like coincidence and I would so easily take for granted. Instead, I see these gifts as proof of God and how he has and continues to orchestrate my life.
