Imagine if we were to follow the lead of Yeshua and act as if doing the will of YHWH was food to us! We would be focused on it multiple times a day. We would not miss many chances to serve Him. I pray the Lord empresses upon me this same view, deep in my soul… that serving Him is like eating… essential to my daily walk through life.
31Meanwhile the disciples were urging Him, saying, “Rabbi, eat.” 32But He said to them, “I have food to eat that you do not know about.” 33So the disciples were saying to one another, “No one brought Him anything to eat, did he?” 34Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to accomplish His work. 35“Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest. 36“Already he who reaps is receiving wages and is gathering fruit for life eternal; so that he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together. 37“For in this case the saying is true, ‘One sows and another reaps.’ 38“I sent you to reap that for which you have not labored; others have labored and you have entered into their labor.”
Let us also not get hung up on who gets the credit for spreading the gospel. Let us give all the glory to YHWH! Some will sow, others will reap. We have different roles, but all are important. Let us go and do the will of the Lord as if it were the very food we need to survive daily.
