John 6:21 Immediately reached destination when invited Jesus into boat
Matt 14:26 Disciples afraid of counterfeit
  Know Jesus – no worry, no fear
  Eyes of church looking at counterfeit – not looking at Jesus
Seek experiences – risk of deception
Seek Jesus – real experience
  Faith he will do it
  Wisdom to know what to do
God wants us, does not need us
  To be wanted better than needed
  He makes us partakers (≈ share along with others)
God wants our company
  Church is not a group of consumers
  Focus is on Jesus - not on what can I get
We are God’s joy
  His delight to give us
Jesus wants to be included in our lives
Spiritual loneliness – Satan likes to separate us from God, he says “God doesn’t care”.
Psalm 139:17 How great are your thoughts
  Father cannot stop thinking about us – obsession cannot stop thinking
Every Christian has presence of God
  But do you have the company of God?
  Fellowship with God the Father, the Son, the Spirit
    Presence – inside, Company – around us / surrounds us
Turn eyes on Jesus – not problem
Meditate on Jesus – not problem
