The Way

🔝 The Way 🔝
By Pat Barrett

There are 3 things that the Lord said about Himself that are very important if we are to become His Disciples. He said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.” — John14:6

The Way.
The Truth.
The Life.

Because He is the Way He wants to become our Way.
Because He is Truth He wants to become our Truth.
Because He is Life He wants to become our life.

It’s a trade, we leave our old lives behind at the cross of Forgiveness and Resurrection for a new Life in Him. That’s His promise and that’s His Way. Our ‘call’ is unto Him and that’s where we find a clean heart, joy and peace. (Romans 14:17)

I was a runner for a long time and watched hundreds of races in person and on TV. I remember one great race. The runner was easily winning and in the last 10 meters he slowed down, began to look around at the people cheering him on and take in their praises. While he did this 2 runners passed him and he finished in 3rd place in a race that he was on pace to break the World Record. His love of himself cost him a World Record.

Jesus understood this danger and said, “Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:13-15

Life is so simple when we follow these 3 basic rules:

He is our Way.
He is our Truth.
He is our Life.

I like simple.

Psalms 34:1-3
1. I will bless the Lord at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2. My soul will make its boast in the Lord;
The humble will hear it and rejoice.
3. O magnify the Lord with me,
And let us exalt His name together.

O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together!

PS: Today the pond is being expanded to make a *much* larger wading area for the children. Please pray, this is a complicated job and we need His guidance as we dig as well as the experience of the contractor. Thank you.
