read John 4:31-38 these are my thoughts on that scripture
31-32 What God has for us is more important tjan our basic needs. It is not a sin to eat but like anything if we put it before God then it becomes sin. Jesus here had something He needed to do before He ate food.
33 The disciples knew that He would have been hungery because He sent them to get food for them to eat.
34 Our will should be to put His will first. Jesus shows serving God and winning people to salvation is more important than a meal. If we the church were this focused on what we are to do we would not have the world values creep into the church.
35-36 If someone knows not Christ they need to hear it, and if someone refuses Christ they need prayer. As long as their are lost people the church has a goal.
37-38 Thru our service to God we see how the Spirit moves people and we know how the Spirit has moved us and without the Spirit and God's Word guiding us we are not doing it they way the Lord attended us to do. Some share the gospel, others teach the gospel, others lead people to the gospel. Leading people to the Lord is like the harvest, the Spirit will tell us when we go if it is time to plant the gospel, water it, or time to win people to the Lord. Some people it may not take much time to win them to the Lord but others it may. Those who we win easly we need to spend time teching them scripture.
