The Word

John 14:6 “Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through Me.’”

Most of us have found “the way” to Jesus through our salvation experience and have entered into “the truth” of His word, but how many of us have totally committed ourselves to Him being “the life” in us?  Positionally we all believe that Jesus lives in us via the Holy Spirit.  However, are we living that truth on a daily basis.  Does our character and values reflect His presence inside us.  Is there evidence of His living water flowing out of us.  If someone were to engage in conversation with you what evidence would they point to as a clear indication of “the life” living inside you.

“The way” speaks of our path to Jesus.  “The truth” speaks of us coming into an understanding of His teaching and precepts.  But “the life” speaks of an intimate, personal, transformational relationship where we are no longer our own, we become like Him reflecting His love wherever we go.  What are you reflecting to others.  Is it the love and life of Christ or something else.  He so desires for all of us to come into a deeper relational experience with Him where His love permeates and transforms our lives every day.  As we allow His love to shine through us then we are truly living “the life” he destined for us to live.
