Is it love that drives us?

John 6-8. Jesus' ministry is expanding. He preaches in Samaria, Galilee and Jerusalem. Many disciples, though, find his teachings too rigid and fall away. John ch6v26-27 ask a very pointed question we need to answer today as well. Do we desire Jesus beccause of something we get or have received? Crowds followed because he fed them. Is love, true love born out of what you get? Or is it born of a desire to know another and be with them? Why do we follow? Is it merely for the promise of eternal life? How wonderful might that life be if it is something we do not want? True desire for another....that is what should drive us in our relationship with Him.
