A daily devotional through the Bible speaking with God as Adam and Eve may have in the garden east of Eden. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com

summary

The crowd that followed Jesus to Capernaum were much like a lot of people today. They follow Him wanting Him to act like a cosmic Santa Claus. Their only interest is in what material things He can give them. The crowd followed to get more food after Jesus fed them on the other side of the Sea of Galilee. Too many want the same from Him today. You’re only interested in what He can give you materially.

Yes, the prayer He taught you does say, “Give us today our daily bread,” but that doesn’t mean He's the genie in the magic lamp. He will meet your needs. He's not here to grant your every wish. He wants you to hunger and thirst for righteousness. He wants you to long for the bread of heaven, the meatier things found in His word. He wants you to long for Him, not what He can give you.
