       Why do you go to church?  What do you want from Jesus, this God-man who lived in a space of geography called Galilee and died outside a city called Jerusalem?  What is it you want from this Christ who shed his blood and gave his body for your sins, and then rose from a tomb to prove that life after death is not a dream?
I hope you want Him to make you a better person because I have to live with you and you have to live with yourself.  It may be sometimes true that “the surly bird gets the worm” but I trust you have not prayed to be one.
I pray you want your church a place where love is king and you are a guard at the door who fights to keep all pettiness, anger and prejudice from entering in.
I trust you want to have your sense of gratitude increase daily so that you say thank you more often than you complain.
I believe that you want to be whole in that area that counts the most, your immortal soul.
Remember what it was Jesus asked of the man with the crippled legs, “Do you want to get well?”  In other words, do you want to be whole?  Not “Do you want to walk again?”  That was obvious.  Otherwise, why would he have come to the pool of Bethesda?  The place where it was said if you entered the water after an angel had rippled it, you would be healed.
You see, Jesus knew that while the healing of the legs was important, the healing of his soul was even more so.  Put it this way - heal just a man’s legs, and not his soul, and his legs can straightway get him in more trouble than he could ever have gotten in when he couldn’t walk.
A man who had once claimed Christ, and then through bitterness had left the church and his faith, was asked by a friend, “What do you miss the most?”  The reply was instant, “I miss the trumpets in the morning."
