John 14:6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
What of Today’s Verse…
I don’t want to be any more exclusive than Jesus. But I do want to hear his voice. He calls me to find the way to the Father through him. I must also know that others must know him to find their way to the Father, too. How can we not be more passionate about those around us who do not really know Jesus as their Saviour, Redeemer, Brother, and Lord? How can the first four books of our New Testament lie unread?
Let us Pray:
Holy God and Righteous Father, give me a passion for Jesus and a heart that knows him in word, deed, and concern. Through him I pray. Amen.’
Words of Wisdom
What is really important to you?
When you start to get angry, or frustrated, or impatient, consider for a moment the truly important things in your life. Ask yourself if the frustration or inconvenience of the moment is even worth your time and energy.
Often we react out of habit, and get all worked up about things which really don’t even matter. Such behaviour wastes an enormous amount of energy which could instead be directed toward the really important things.
As you start each day, before you get caught up in the deadlines, the need-to, the have-to and the want-to things, take a moment to think of what’s really important to you. Put it all in perspective. Keep your eye on the big picture, and then all the little things will help you move toward it.
