Satisfying God not man.

“Do not work for food that perishes
but for the food that endures for eternal life,
which the Son of Man will give you.”

Somedays it seems that I just go, go, go and get very little done. Then when I’m in a meloncoly mood such as today, it feels like it is all for naught. What am I really accomplishing here? We are living in a world that judges you more on the condition of your house, then on the condition of your soul. Feeling judged and found lacking, can be a pretty heavy burden on anyone’s shoulders. But then today’s reading reminds me what I’m working for. Approval of others is not it, or shouldn’t be…that is definitely food that perishes…no one can satisfy everyone all of the time. However when we strive to glorify God and live a life of obedience…He provides us with what is truly necessery in life.
