The way...The Truth...the life...

 

“I am the way and the truth and the life.”

 

The night before Jesus sacrificed himself for us, he was preparing his disciples for the days ahead. For over three whole years, these men followed Jesus, trusting and believing in him. They had placed their hearts and soul in his hands. After the Last Supper, Jesus began preparing the disciples for his departure;

 

“My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.”


Peter and the other disciples did not understand, they were convinced Jesus was going to a certain destination, not giving his life. Jesus said;

 

“Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later… you know the way to the place where I am going.”

 

Thomas, one of his disciples, questioned Jesus;

 

“We do not know where you are going, so how can we follow?”

 

Jesus smiled.

 

“I am the way, the truth and the life…”

 

-John

Jesus has your life in his hands, every day he walks with you, he nurtures you, and he loves you. Never will Jesus abandon you, nor will he leave you.


“The night before Jesus sacrificed himself, he was preparing his disciples for the days ahead…”
God plans our future, through the highs and the lows. When you are surrounded by darkness, God will lead you to the light. When you feel useless and valueless, God will show you that you are significant to him and his Kingdom;


 ‘For I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me.’


-Philippians 4:13



There is always a light at the end of a tunnel, God is that light.
