Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.”— John 6:68
Thought Of The Day...
Have you ever had a morning when you crawled wearily out of bed, stubbed your toe, burnt your toast, and had all kinds of other things go wrong? A day like that makes you want to go straight back to bed. Or maybe the circumstances are harder, and someone is telling you to hang on when you want to let go.
I wonder if Jesus’ disciples felt in a way like that when a lot of people turned away from Jesus after he shared some hard but true teachings. I wonder how many times the disciples weren’t quite sure what to do with Jesus. Was it embarrassing or confusing or overwhelming for them? Already fully committed to Jesus, they knew they couldn’t give up or let go. Jesus, who was clearly the Son of God, had met the longings of their hearts—and even on the worst days they had experienced, they knew that traveling with Jesus was enough. When he asked, “Are you going to leave too?” Peter replied with words that confirmed what the disciples were feeling: “There’s no one else to go to, and you are all we need.”
On days when you feel like giving up, throwing in the towel, or walking away from your faith, where will you go? It is too much to walk away from the one who holds you close through his presence and his words. By his character he assures you that even on a bad day, he is there.
Prayer...
Gracious and loving God, We come before you today with humble hearts and seeking minds. You have shown us, through your Son Jesus, that you have the words of eternal life. We are grateful for this gift and we ask for your guidance as we search for these words, seek to understand them, and strive to obey them.
We acknowledge that we are imperfect and we may stumble along the way. But we trust in you, Jesus, as our Lord and Savior. We trust that your words are truth and that they will lead us to everlasting life with you.
As we walk this journey, we pray that you open our hearts and minds to receive your teachings. Help us to dig deep into your word and to find the hidden treasures within. Give us the wisdom and discernment to understand your message and the strength to live by it.
We give ourselves completely to you, Jesus. Teach us, lead us, and mold us into your likeness. May we always trust in you as our hope and our salvation. And may we share your words of eternal life with those around us. We pray all this in your holy name, Jesus. Amen.
Enjoy your Sunday Church Services and God Bless!
