The way Jn 14:1-6

Jesus said to his disciples: "Do not let your hearts be troubled. You have faith in God; have faith also in me. In my Father's house there are many dwelling places. If there were not, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and take you to myself, so that where I am you also may be. Where I am going you know the way." Thomas said to him, "Master, we do not know where you are going;
how can we know the way?" Jesus said to him, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

The way to faith, truth, life and to God the Father is through Jesus and faith in Jesus. With faith there is a freedom from fear and worry. As I begin each day with new challenges and trials, I need to remember that I can turn daily to Jesus and the Father in prayer for all my troubles and that God will give me what I need for each day on the journey. The end of the journey through life will be to dwell in the Father's house and there is a place for me there. It is simple truth that takes daily living in the way of it and renewal in the Word of God. Without the daily Word of God, my heart and mind is easily lost and confused. It is a blessing to live in a House of God and be able to hear the Word of God with others daily. It gives life and strength to my faith.
