Jesus and Food

I recently read through the gospels looking for evidence of Jesus' relationship with food. What I found is amazing.

Jesus recognized that both over-emphasizing and under-emphasizing food can be a spiritual danger. Balance is the key to appreciating the spiritual significance of food. Jesus both fasted and feasted. His life was not consumed with worry about eating too much or eating too little.

Over the coming days, I'll post more about Jesus' relationship with food, as a guide for us in our relationship with food.
