WHAT ARE YOU SEEKING? MATTHEW 11:7-9Everyone is searching for something." There is a profound truth in that statement. What are you looking for when you don't know yourself? Every person on the planet from the moment they are born until the day they die are seeking something. A newborn baby from the moment it is born seeks nourishment, warmth and security. The person on death's door seeks a little more time and through desperation may go to great extremes to hold onto this life for just a few moments longer. But whatever people are seeking, the same two things drive the motivations behind what they seek: needs and wants. It is our needs and wants that drive us to seek everything in this life. At the start of Jesus' ministry, He saw two men following Him and He turned to them asking, "What are you seeking?" (John 1:38) However the bible doesn't tell us what their answer was, but it is a question that needs to be answered by all of us. Everyone who goes to church needs to consider their motivations for why they are attending church meetings. Consider the Lord's question for yourself just for a moment. What are you seeking? When you go to church, are you seeking companionship or a community of like-minded people? Do you go seeking social connections? Do you go to be entertained by the music or to participate in the service in some way? Or do you go seeking Jesus and the truth of the new covenant? No matter what you think you're looking for in a church, coming to learn about the bible. What you're really craving is Jesus. Whether you'd like to join us in this pursuit or even if you just want to ask some questions, we welcome you to Peeples Valley Baptist Church.
