NOT ONLY THE WAY

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

John 14:6 KJV

Jesus is not only the way to our Heavenly Father, He is also the way to joy and happiness.  “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).  Jesus wants us to have a happy and victorious life.

Eugene Bartlett wrote the beautiful inspiring hymn “Victory In Jesus”.  There is victory in Jesus because He not only leads us through our dark valleys, He also picks us up and carries us until the pain goes away and then sets us once again on the mountain top of happiness.  Jesus is our victorious Saviour.

If you have been looking for happiness, joy and peace in drugs or sex or alcohol you will never find it.  Only Jesus can give us happiness, joy and peace.  Tell Jesus you are lonely, hurting and sad and ask Him to help you.  He loves you so much He died for you on the cross.  You can have a happy and victorious life.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Jesus and for giving us a happy and victorious life through Jesus.  Dear Father, I love You so much and I appreciate all You have done for me through the years and all that You do for me every day.  Jesus, thank You for giving us the victory.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
