What if…

What if that nagging hunger for more in your life is Jesus saying: “I Am the bread of life; whoever comes to Me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in Me shall never thirst.” (John 6:35) The true bread Jesus offers to you is spiritual & eternal, not material & temporary as the world offers.

What if your sense of not being able to find your way in the world is Jesus saying: “I Am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12) Jesus is the light & truth of God’s Word & will show you the way in this dark world.

What if all your bottled up loneliness is Jesus saying: “I Am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture.” (John 10:9) On the other side of that door you will find Salvation, safety & guidance from Jesus Who will exchange all your loneliness for His everlasting love.

What if that ever-present anxiety is Jesus saying: ” I Am the good Shepherd. The good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.” (John 10:11) Jesus willingly sacrificed His life for you in order that you may have eternal life, and there is nothing that will ever happen to you that has not already been ordained by God. Fear not!

What if the void inside you…the one you’ve tried all your life to fill, is Jesus saying: ” I Am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me, though he die, yet he live, and everyone who lives and believes in Me shall never die.” (John 11:25-26) That void inside you is meant to be filled by our risen Lord, through faith alone, so that you may enjoy an abundant life through Him.

What if all your distrust is Jesus saying: “I Am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6) You can place your trust in Jesus for He will never forsake you, abandon you, or leave you.

What if your feelings of worthlessness is Jesus saying: “I Am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.” (John 15:1) In Christ you have a true union and relationship with God & in His eyes you are precious, loved and so worthy.
