VERSE:
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one
comes to the Father except through me."
-- John 14:6
THOUGHT:
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 Savior,
Redeemer, Brother, and Lord? How can the first four books of our
New Testament lie unread?
PRAYER:
Holy God and Righteous Father, give me a passion for Jesus and a
heart that knows him in word, deed, and concern. In the name of
Jesus, your mighty Word, I pray. Amen.
