People, today, are searching. They are searching for something that is true and genuine. They are searching in many different places and through many different means.
Many are searching for truth. They are searching in books, religious teachings even in institutional church services. Oftentimes they look to the Bible as a text book to find truth instead of looking to the One who is truth.
John 14:6 CSB
Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
We must keep the Main Thing the main thing. While there is nothing inherently wrong with authors who write about Jesus, books written about Jesus, speakers who speak about Jesus and Bibles that point you to Jesus we must keep in mind these things are not Jesus.
There is but one Jesus and He is the Living Word.
John 1:1-2 CSB
[1] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] He was with God in the beginning.
John 1:14 CSBThe Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory as the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
As I have said often in my blog it comes down us having a relationship with the Living Word - Jesus. Relationships take work. Communication is a huge key to all successful relationships. We speak to Him in prayer and He speaks to us through the Bible as well as by way of the Holy Spirit who indwells believers.
Of all the relationships we cultivate none is more important than our relationship with Jesus. As important as our relationships are with our spouse, children, extended family and even friends there is no relationship more important than the relationship between us and Jesus.
Jesus loves us unconditionally. He laid down His life for us. That’s love! The very least we can do is live for Him.
It’s all about Jesus!
Until next time...enjoy the journey,
