Many gathered about Jesus, questioning, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? They hoped to receive from His lips a further account of the miracle (Jesus walking on water). Jesus did not gratify their curiosity. He sadly said, Ye seek Me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. They did not seek Him from any worthy motive; but as they had been fed with the loaves, they hoped still to receive temporal benefit by attaching themselves to Him. The Saviour bade them Labor not for the meat that perisheth, but for that meat which endureth into everlasting life. Desire of Ages Ch. 40 How often do we seek Christ merely for things that will not last. We care not for a spiritual blessing but ask for a worldly blessing instead. Lord help me to seek you because I love you and want to see you face to face, not for material benefit.
