It is fairly easy for us to list what we want in life. It is a much more difficult task to identify the things we actually need. Our understanding of our own needs is quite foggy at times because, as they say, we are only human. I was originally moved to write this song while discussing some common trends found in the Church today. What we as the Church think we need and what we really need can be two very different things. Somehow, the Church has been overcomplicated, and in the process, God’s truths have taken a back seat to programmatic thinking, moralistic teaching, and spiritual slackness. Instead of treating the cause, we treat the symptoms. Instead of sinking in roots, we fluff up the leaves a bit. So what is the root of it all, this ultimate need? What we need, always, is more of Christ. We are told to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all other things will fall in line. Not seek first His programs; not seek first His morality; not seek first his earthly riches; but simply to seek Him, His kingdom, His righteousness. Let us be a Church that loves our Heavenly Father more and more every day. Let us be a Church that is rooted in Christ and bears authentic fruit of true believers. Let us be the Church.
