“When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you get here?”
Jesus answered, “Truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate the loaves and were filled. Don’t work for the food that perishes but for the food that lasts for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set his seal of approval on him.”
“What can we do to perform the works of God?” they asked. Jesus replied, “This is the work of God — that you believe in the one he has sent.”
John 6:25-29 CSB
We humans always miss the real point. I am like these people, looking at the practical (the meal Jesus provided) rather than the eternal (what does God want me to do?). I love how Jesus primary concern is that we believe. Later on in the same book Jesus says that we should obey if we believe.
Lord, help me to obey, help me to believe and help me to love You!
