I Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6, NRSVUE).

The disciples are facing Jesus’ imminent departure. Jesus tries to prepare and comfort them, but they are filled with questions: Why are you leaving us? Aren’t we supposed to be following you? How do we know the way? Jesus explains where he is going and that he will return when everything is ready (John 14:1-3), but they are confused and afraid.

Confusion, loss of meaning, uncertainty, and fear of what looms ahead has plagued humans throughout history, and Jesus offers us the same response he gave the disciples: “I am the way and the truth and the life.” Jesus addresses the deepest questions of the universe: Is there a God? How can we know him? Do we live forever? And how can we truly live with God, one another, and ourselves in peace, harmony, and love?

The answer? Jesus is the way to God, he guides us in the truth of God, and he offers us abundant and eternal life with God.

And yet the world resists. The world scoffs at the idea that there is only one way to God. The world seeks to define abundant life by its own terms. But Jesus’ death and resurrection verified everything he ever said. His disciples eventually understood, and followers of Jesus have been his witnesses ever since.

As the world searches for meaning, purpose, and peace, Jesus’ invitation remains the same: Follow me. I am the way and the truth and the life.

Reflection Questions

  1. Do you believe Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life? Have you put your trust in him? (You can today!)
  2. Who in your sphere needs to know the truth about Jesus?

Breathe Together

In this season of uncertainty, one thing is certain. Jesus is alive and the only answer for our time. As we enter into this week of prayer, each day focuses on one of Jesus’ I AM statements with reflection questions to draw us closer to Jesus and listen to what he may be saying to us about who he is, who we are, and how he is inviting us to respond to his nudging.
