John 6:22

John 6:22 says, The day following, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea saw that there was none other boat there, save that one whereinto his disciples were entered, and that Jesus went not with his disciples into the boat, but that his disciples were gone away alone;  We see that the multitude the next day wondered where Jesus had gone. There was no other boat than the one the disciples had sailed in, and Jesus was not with them when they left.  He was alone on the mountain.  Verse twenty-three adds, (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberias nigh unto the place where they did eat bread, after that the Lord had given thanks:)  After they had been fed, the people had lost sight of Jesus.  When people today need something, they may call on God for the answer.  If the need is met, they may enjoy the answer to their need, but still not be mindful of God until the next time they need something.  Then, they may look around and ask where God went.  When we truly are His, we never have to ask where He is.  He is with us always.  Verse twenty-four continues, When the people therefore saw that Jesus was not there, neither his disciples, they also took shipping, and came to Capernaum, seeking for Jesus.  The people decided to go to Capernaum to look for Jesus.  There were several boats around by then.  Verse twenty-five states, And when they had found him on the other side of the sea, they said unto him, Rabbi, when camest thou hither? They were seeking Him for the wrong reasons, but a way to get to Him was made available.  Today, even those who seek Jesus for the wrong reasons will be provided a way to Him.  Then, God will lead them to the truth, whether they accept it or not.  They asked Jesus how He got there.  We don't need to understand how God works His will in the world.  We need only to accept that He can and will do what He says He will do.  Verse twenty-six adds, Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled.  In answer to their question, Jesus said they were not there because of a spiritual desire to find Jesus, but for a materialistic reason.  When we look to Jesus, or more accurately the Holy Spirit, for answers, we need to make sure we are asking for spiritual needs, not material wants.
