you know the way


John 14:4,6  NLT

And you know the way to where I am going… Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.


You know the way.


You know the truth.


You know the life.


First of all, those things come from Jesus as He spoke to His disciples.  He is the way.  He is the truth.  He is the life.  It is and was that simple.


Second, you know the right way.  We have learned and been shown so many things throughout our lives.  That means we really do know the truth.


So why is it that we don’t do it?  It happens.  We know the right thing, the right way and what is the truth.  Yet we turn a different direction leaving the place where the blessings are, or the strength will come.


That happens for several different reasons.  The reasons we don’t follow the truth.  It could be because we think we know better or because we want to have a good time.


James 4:17  NASB

So for one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, for him it is sin.


Be careful not to miss the best God has for you.  He is not trying to keep us from having fun.  He is not trying to take away our freedom.


Jesus wanted to guide and bless and protect those that He loves.  That is what He is doing for you and me as well.  Choose the right way and to live in the truth.


It is when we follow the way, the truth and the life that we find real freedom and strength and even more life!


Have a great weekend because you know the way.


John 10:10  NLT

The thief’s purpose is to steal and kill and destroy. My purpose is to give them a rich and satisfying life.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look
