Need Directions?

John 14:6 ¶ Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

         Where are you in your life journey? Sometimes I wish life were mapped out like an amusement park with a kiosk. On the map I can look see that big red star that says, “You are here!” When I see this I know where I am and where I need to go to get to my destination. But life is not this way. Or is it?

Yes, it is. This is because God loves us and has given us a GPS, God’s Precious Son, to show us the way. God is always giving directions through the Son, Jesus.  As Jesus pointed out to His disciples, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” In other words, Jesus was telling them: “Follow me.” You can stop and look at Jesus for direction. Jesus will guide you in your career, relationships, parenting and finances. Jesus knows the ultimate end. The author of Hebrews says, “Jesus is the author and the finisher of our Faith.” Let God’s Precious Son be your source of direction.  He will lead you through this temporary life to eternal life.

PRAYER:

         Jesus I surrender my life to you and trust you to lead me where I need to go. You will turn me away from temptation and lead me where I will have peace and joy that all comes from you. This is my prayer. Amen.
