"Doing the works of God"


John 6:22-29

On the next day the people who remained on the other side of the sea saw that there had been only one boat there, and that Jesus had not entered the boat with his disciples, but that his disciples had gone away alone. However, boats from Tiberias came near the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks. So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus. When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?" Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to eternal life, which the Son of man will give to you; for on him has God the Father set his seal." Then they said to him, "What must we do, to be doing the works of God?" Jesus answered them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent."

Duha ka klase an gutom nan tawo – pisikal sanan espiritwal, pero si God ra gajud an maka-pura nan gutom sa kasing-kasing sanan sa kayag – an gutom sa kamatuoran sanan sa gugma.

Naghis’gut dinhi si Jesus nan mga trabaho ni God sanan kon uno’y ato himoon para mahimo ini, parehas nan pagtuo sa Anak nan Diyos na Ija tagpadaya sa kalibutan.

Gusto ni Jesus na may kinabuhi kita na jao’y gugma, pagselbi sanan pagpasaylo sa ato isig’katawo para nato kabayusan an kalooy sanan kamarajaw ni God dato tanan.

Kinabuhi na puro sanan balaanon an gusto ‘sab ni Jesus para dato; kinabuhi na masun’danon sanan may pagsalig sa Diyos 'sab.

Amo ini an mga trabaho na gusto ni Jesus na ato himoon para kita makahimo, sa tabang nan Holy Spirit, nan mga gusto Nija ipahimo dato.

"Lord Jesus, you alone can satisfy the deepest longing and hunger in our hearts. May I always hunger for the imperishable bread, that I may be satisfied in you alone as the True Bread of Heaven. Nourish and strengthen me that I may serve you with great joy, generosity, and zeal all the days of my life".
