Dear Heavenly Visitor, You made Your purpose on earth very clear when You said “I am The Way and The Truth and The Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” As The Way, You are the only path to a meaningful relationship with Your Father. To become The Way, You had to submit Yourself and Your will to Your Heavenly Father. To accept You as My Way, I must submit myself and my will to You. You are my visible, tangible image of the invisible Father. You are a complete revelation of who He is and the way He wants me to approach Him. To know You is to know Him … to know Your way is to know His way. If I follow in Your footsteps, I know that I will be following the road to happiness, peace, prosperity, safety, and love.
As The Truth, You are the reality of all that Your Father has promised to me. As I draw closer to You and gaze into the purity of Your heart, I will be able to recognize the honesty with which Your words are spoken. And I realize that Your words are a lamp that provides light to my feet so I can walk uprightly and avoid stumbling in the darkness. If I hold steadfastly to the teachings contained in Your Word, I will understand what truth really is and that will release me from the encumbrances and fog I find myself in whenever I listen to the vain babbling of the world and the deceptions of my enemy. You set the standard for what is right. Your words are the keys that set me free from the consequences of my sins, self-deceptions and lies of the enemy. You have chosen for me the way to live righteously and inherit eternal life. And the Spirit of Truth has been given to me to teach me the meaning of Your words … to show me how to walk in them … and remind me that I am loved.
I rejoice in Your gift of eternal life and Your promise of a life filled with abundance. Finding the path to eternal life is made hard by the fact that there is only one way to attain it … believing in You. And, if I love the life of the world more than the one You offer, I soon discover how empty it is. I realize that I get the most out of life when I let go of the world to follow You. What an example of selflessness You left when You gave Yourself as a ransom for me. You gave of Yourself as the price to release me from bondage and allow me to share eternity with You. That’s in contrast to the thief who comes to steal what You came to give. I bask in the life that You’ve given to me which is richer and fuller than anything the world has to offer. As a result of giving myself to You, I live on a higher plain because of Your forgiveness and love. That is why I cling to every word You speak. And it’s in Jesus’ name I pray. AMEN!!
John 14:6 Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
