The Father is Seeking Worshippers...

Those words have their basis in John 4- "But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” (v 23-24)

What an amazing reality that is! God desires worshipers who are in tune with Him... who know who God is and are internally drawn to Him- not the most accurate description of our culture. Our world elevates and worships many things... but God as He's revealed Himself in Scripture in the face of Jesus Christ isn't among the top 10- at all. But the Father is seeking worshipers.

This Sunday, we'll be looking at John 4 to grasp the connection between worship and evangelism... how a burden to tell others about God begins and ends with a heart amazed by His glory. I'm looking forward to Eric's message for this reason... that I might grow in both my wonder at God's glory and the weight of my call to share what I've known with others.
