Jesus Is The Way, Truth, and Life

These days, a lot of people might say, “Are you frustrated with your life, come with me, I know the way to set you free!”
So easy to get away from the problems that you’re facing by doing some bad things. For example: gambling, or trying the addictive drugs. And lots of people are offering you those kinds of things.
But they won’t last forever. Even you try so hard, you might still feel the emptiness inside you.

Let me tell you the good news, Jesus came to this world, and He said that He’s the Way, the Truth, and The Life.
So, why should you find other solutions while you already have the real one, Jesus Himself?
The best of the best of every solution you can get. Through Him, in Him, with Him, we know that we won’t be lost.
Problems, big or small, are unavoidable. But we got our way, our Jesus.
We can be free as long as we’re following His steps and not other things. (-fon-)

Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
--- John 14:6



A New Sight, a New Perspective

Today, when I went to church, I heard a very good homily about a blind man who can eventually see. And the Father asked us, "Is love blind?"
Because sometimes, at weddings, we would judge that one person is better than the other, physically or in terms of background and we might ask, “What does he/ she see in his/her spouse?”
And the father gave a very good answer, that love isn’t blind. Love gives a new VISION.
To see what others can’t see.
That’s love.

In today's Psalm that I read, I found that all of us were blind. Some of us are still blind until now. But once we know the Lord and made Him our personal Savior, our blindness will slowly be changed into a new vision, a new sight. With His Love for us, God has given us a vision, to see this life with a new perspective.
He has given us the sight. We're blind but now we can slowly see. Thank God for not letting us living in blindness for so long... (-fon-)

the LORD gives sight to the blind,
the LORD lifts up those who are bowed down,
the LORD loves the righteous
--- Psalm 146:8
