«Most assuredly, I say to you, you seek Me, not because you saw the signs, but because you ate of the loaves and were filled.» John 6:26
Do you remember the day Jesus multiplied the five loaves and two little fish? The next day many people started looking for Jesus. They had heard about the miracle of the multiplication and also wanted some of the food. But they didn’t find Jesus.
Suddenly, they saw some people returning from the place where the multiplication of the loaves happened and thought that Jesus might be with them. But He was not. They couldn’t find His disciples either.
So, they decided to take some boats and cross the Sea of Galilee to get to the city of Capernaum.
Finally, they found Jesus and were very happy. They asked Him: “Jesus, how long has it been since You came here?”
Jesus thought for a while, looked at them, and said: “Ah, you have come after Me because you want to eat bread, haven’t you? You are too concerned about the things of this world. You should be more concerned about the things of heaven!”
Let’s practice!
Draw a loaf of bread and the Holy Bible. Pray to God to eat the Bread from heaven every day.
