THE WAY

Since I live in a rural country town our streets are never crowded.  Unlike that of the city, traffic is slim and it only takes 5 minutes to get across town.  When I travel to the city I have learned many of the back roads from friends that either live there or travel there often.  It is nice to be able to zip around and get my errands completed in a timely manner.  When you are use to less commotion the craziness of a city street can be over whelming. 

Are you ready to get in your car and hit the back roads?  Are you ready to jump on the journey to Jesus?  With the navigation systems of today we can gain assess to many routes, back roads and shortcuts.  These systems give you the time estimated of your arrival.  And yes we can have this with Jesus also it is very simple.  Many will take the back road; the easy route to the lord, but some just won’t listen and will take the long road that is bumper to bumper with the commotion of the traffic.

The bible is a clearly marked map of the back road that God has given to us.  It provides us the directions that lead us to eternal life.  The directions include the explanation that God showed His love to the world by sending His only son Jesus Christ.  It is through Him and Him alone that we will have salvation. 

Whether you are traveling on a country road or a city road don’t let the traffic of life get in your way.  The journey of the back road is easy.  You already know the directions.  As Jesus said, “No one comes to the father except through me.”  Jesus is your back road, start your journey today (it will take less than 5 minutes).  This journey is God given and God directed. 

Don’t be overwhelmed with the traffic; live a life that doesn’t consist of rush hour.  Travel this journey with Him on the back road. 

John 14:6New International Version (NIV)

6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
