Physical Desire of Man versus God's Spiritual Purpose
John 6:1
Our God meets physical needs because He is compassionate and remembers that He formed us from the dust of the Earth. We desire physical fulfillment and without spiritual awareness and effort, we do not see or consider our spiritual needs. Jesus showed His compassion by meeting the needs of the people in a supernatural and miraculous way. The people recognized Him as the Messiah because of all the miracles He performed to meet their physical needs. They wanted to make Him King and free them from Roman rule. Jesus desired to do the will of His Father which was to be the Sacrificial Lamb to take away the sins of the world and He left the crowd to be alone. Do we clamor for the physical things or do we desire to do the will of our Lord and Savior? I look forward to seeing you in Sunday School.
