5 Questions: Who Wants Me?

We all have 5 core needs that need to be met in everyone’s life:

SECURITY: Who Can I Trust?

IDENTITY: Who Am I?

BELONGING: Who Wants me?

PURPOSE: Why Am I Alive?

COMPETENCE: What Do I Do Well?

John 4:1-15

Bottom Line: Everyone is thirsty for a sense of belonging; a relationship with Jesus is the only relationship that truly satisfies this core need. John 4:10

Your friends, your spouse, your things, your kids, or your job were never intended by God to fulfill this core need; nothing other than Jesus could bear the weight of such a burden. John 4:13-14

God knows everything we chase after to try to find a position of belonging; yet, He still invites us into His belonging. John 4:16-23

We live in a time period where we seek to find our sense of belonging in likes, follows, and mentions on Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook; this is a never-ending chase after an answer to the question, “Who wants me?”

Our measure of belonging is determined by who or how our needs are being met; when that supply runs thin, we’re off to the races to find our belonging in something else.

God supplies for every need you have according to His riches in Christ Jesus; when we understand this we can thrive in our purpose regardless of circumstances. Philippians 4:19

God wants you to find your position of belonging in Him; try we may, but we will never be satisfied in anything other than Jesus. John 15:1-5
