My Log #6: "What do you really want?"

My Dorm Room
2002 hours

Jesus answered, "Very truly I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw the signs I performed but because you ate the loaves and had your fill."
- John 6 : 26 NIV -

Some friend of mine asked me to accompany him to go to the church. Well because I had already went to the church this morning, and I got something to do, so I rejected it immediately. Then, he said,"Hmm is there nobody who wants to go to church with me? I don't wanna go alone. It's feels no fun if I go alone." Now hold up. For what reason will you go to church? Is it because you have friends to go there, so if you don't have any friends to accompany you, then you won't go? Is it that the music is very nice?(Well, I am a musician, and I'll be mad if the music for the worship was being done "half-heart"ed). Don't you understand the true meaning of worship? Please open your eyes already. =_="
The preach from the church today really giving me an inspiration while writing this post. The followers of Jesus was being criticized by their own Master. Why? Most of them just follow Jesus because they just want what did they see, for example the healing to the ill, or the sign from the 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes. They just think,"He can give me the bread that can satisfy me. I'll follow Him to get more, so I don't have to work to get food." Then, Jesus speak about the Bread of Life, which is the Words that come from the God Himself. But then they deserted Him because they feel like they don't get anything they want.
We as a human do have some needs for worldly matters, such as food, clothes, money, etc. But, Jesus once said in Deuteronomy 8:3 which teaches us that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the LORD. That means we don't really live with only the physical stuff, but every words that comes from God is the one who's keeping us on our track. If we want the answers for our prayers, read the Bible, and try to understand it. If you are a real Christian, go to church to get any God's Words is the main priority of all.

So, what is your motivation in going to church now?
