“Do you seek God for what He gives… or for who He is?”
In this powerful reflection on John 6, Jesus challenges us to examine our relationship with Him. Are we seeking God only for blessings, miracles, and comfort — or are we seeking God Himself?
This sermon calls us to move beyond a transactional faith and into a deep, mature relationship as sons and daughters of God. As we prepare for Lent, we’re reminded that prayer — not just fasting or outward discipline — is the foundation of true spiritual transformation.
