Satisfaction in Jesus

 

 

John Chapter 6 verses 22 to 40

22 The next day the crowd that had stayed on the opposite shore of the lake realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not entered it with his disciples, but that they had gone away alone. 23 Then some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. 24 Once the crowd realized that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum in search of Jesus. 25 When they found him on the other side of the lake, they asked him, "Rabbi, when did you get here?" 26 Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, you are looking for me, not because you saw miraculous signs but because you ate the loaves and had your fill. 27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. On him God the Father has placed his seal of approval." 28 Then they asked him, "What must we do to do the works God requires?" 29 Jesus answered, "The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent." 30 So they asked him, "What miraculous sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you? What will you do? 31 Our forefathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'" 32 Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world." 34 "Sir," they said, "from now on give us this bread." 35 Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty. 36 But as I told you, you have seen me and still you do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. 38 For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. 40 For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."

 

In the passage the crowd searches for Jesus after him miraculously fed the thousand 5, 000 people and then when they found him J just confronted their motives and I'm pointing out that they are seeking him not because they were understood the miracle as a signs of who he is

but because they were physically satisfied by the bread they ate.

Jesus said "very truly I tell you you are looking for me not because of you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loves and had you feel."

The crowds focus was on their immediate physical needs and not on the sprature chose behind the miracles.

They did not ask about the Jesus himself but about what he can do for them for them.

They pursue the food that endures the eternal life rather than the focusing on the food that spoils.

Here we should ask ourselves how open do we to seek genus for temporary relief rather than the eternal transformation?

This misplaced pursuit highlights our tendency to prioritize and fleeting pleasure over the lasting future fulfillment.

 

 

Interesting thing is that the crowd demands another sign referencing the manner provides to their ancestors.

In the wilderness Jesus used the opportunities to declare the front profound the truth and the bread of life.

Whoever comes to me shall not hunger or whoever believes in the shall never thirst

Jesus explained he is the bread of life.

All those who comes to him and believed in him will experience a true and complete satisfaction in their lives 

unlike manner which sustained life temporally Jesus is the answer to the spiritual hunger and thirst that nothing else in this world can feel.

Jesus also provides a comfort

comforting promises.

All the fathers give me will come to me and whoever comes to me will never cast out.

He assured the believers of eternal life and a resurrection of the last day 

Jesus will never reject anyone who comes to him in faith 

in his mission is to save and secure those who believe in him enduring that none of them will be lost.

 

What is your motivation for following Jesus?
