Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the
Father except through me."
What is your idea of success? Recognition--wealth--early
retirement--college education for you children? Some of you are
thinking, yes, all those and a few more items you haven't
mentioned. Others are thinking, "Just get me through this day."
Of course, what really counts is our success in our spiritual lives, as we connect with Jesus
Christ.
(John 14.6
NRSV)
Paul Harvey told recently about a college basketball
coach who was shaving when his wife called upstairs to tell him
that SPORTS ILLUSTRATED was on the phone. The coach was so
excited he kicked himself shaving. He was so eager for
recognition for himself and his school that rushing to the phone
he fell down the stairs and bruised himself up. Staggering to the
phone breathlessly he said, "Hello." The voice at the other end
said. "Yes sir. I'm happy to tell you that for only 75 cents per
week you can receive a one year's subscription..."
Dear Jesus, thank you for those who have come into my life to help me find my way to you.
Amen.
