Look for the Son…and You Will Find the Father

Prayer – Lord, there is salvation in You alone. I praise Your name! You are the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Thank you for making the way complete.

Look for the Son...and you will find the Father.

Jesus told him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me.” John 14:6

 

Meditate. Consider God’s guidance in scripture. Read God’s word and listen to what He is saying.

 

Back in 1968 a song, "Do You Know the Way to San Jose?” was written by Burt Bacharach, with the lyrics by Hal David, for Dionne Warwick. It was a very popular and catchy song—Goggle it. Change up the lyrics a little…Do you know the way to the Father? You’ve been away for a long time….

 

Of course, the Father is our Almighty God, living in Heaven. Jesus, His Son, is the only way to the Father. Jesus told His disciples that in what we know as His teachings at the Last Supper. Seek Jesus and you will find Him. He promised that in the Old and New Testaments. In finding the Son, you’ll find the Father and everlasting life. A life of service to the Lord, for where He is, there you will be also.

Father, I want these whom you have given me to be with me where I am. Then they can see all the glory you gave me because you loved me even before the world began! John 17:24

Look for the Son…and you will find the Father, because of His love.

 

Verse of Salvation ~ For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says, 'The stone that you builders rejected has now become the cornerstone.' There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved. Acts 4:11-12
