What I am working for

John 6:22-33
Jesus said to those crowd why they are longing for him, 'Because you ate the loaves and had your fill'.
Jesus said "Non't work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son  of man will give you.
What must we do the works of God requires?
The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.
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.
Why?
Jesus said miraculous sign is not the motivation of people seek him but for the food, miraculous sign sometime is happen on limited person, have not much relation with us, healing is we needed, but we will die one day. the eternal life is more important.
No one can live without food. But Jesus comes to provide 'bread' that will satisfy more than physical hunger.
What God wants you to do is to believe in the one he sent.
Man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord (Deut. 8:3)
Moses wrote the words of the Lord, gave the law of God, manna was given from the Lord for physical life, but Jesus gives the bread of life.
How?
Do the work of God, believe in Jesus who is the Son of God.
Am I working hard for the living? or for the Jesus? sometime I have to meditate it, we might forget what I am working for.
When I believe in Jesus than I will know what I should do and what I can't do.
