What does it mean that Christ is our sustenance?

Answered in 1 source

Christ as our sustenance means He provides spiritual nourishment and is essential for our growth in faith.

In the Christian faith, Christ is portrayed as our ultimate sustenance both physically and spiritually. In John 6, Jesus refers to Himself as the 'bread of life,' asserting that those who come to Him will never hunger spiritually. This concept is echoed in Psalm 123, where the psalmist expresses dependence on God for mercy and sustenance. When we look to Christ, we acknowledge that He is not only the source of our physical needs but also fulfills our spiritual cravings. All that we require for sustenance—be it guidance, strength, or comfort—comes through our relationship with Him, reinforcing the significance of spiritual communion and reliance on His provision for our lives.
