The Bible is filled with metaphors that help us understand Biblical truths. As we look at the feeding of the five thousand, we can see Jesus using physical hunger to illustrate a spiritual need. Without proper nourishment, growth will not happen, whether physical or spiritual. In this teaching, Pastor Mark asks us to slow down enough to receive manna from heaven. He reminds us that without spiritual food our hearts will grow cold to the Lord. Are you running to the Bread of Life to receive satisfaction or are you running to the things of this world?
