[Jesus said] “I am the gate. Those who enters into life through me will find it. And they will discover freedom and peace also.” (John 10: 9)
Life, Freedom and Peace
True Freedom
[Jesus said] “If the Son makes you free, you will be truly free.” (John 8: 36)
Free at Last
Jesus said, “If you trust in my teachings you really are my follower. Then you will discover the real truth and it will set you free.” (John 8: 31-32)
Thirsting Quenched
“Jesus said, ‘Anyone who is thirsty come to me, drink and be filled.'” (John 7: 37)
Never Thirst or Hunger Again
“Jesus said, ‘I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry, and whoever trusts in me will never be thirsty.” (John 6: 35)
Father,
Thank you for the life you have given me,
Which fills up my deepest needs.
So that I will never hunger or thirst again,
Because you give me more than I could ever want.
Amen
Living in the Light
“God’s light streamed into the world. But some people rejected it because they want to live in darkness.” (John 3: 19)
“Lord,
Thank you for your light which fills my life,
With direction, warmth and love.
Guide me in living fully in that light,
And in helping others to discover it.
Amen
Love that Conquers our Greatest Fears
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who trusts in him will never die but have eternal life.” (John 3: 16)
Father,
Thank you for your love,
Power greater than anything I might fear,
Thank you that your love conquers all when I trust,
So help me to stand firm in that faith,
When I doubt help me to believe,
When I fear remind me of your love,
And I will praise you forever.
Amen
The Light That Never Fails
“The light of Jesus shines in the darkness and the darkness can never put it out.” (John 1: 5)
The world may seem dark at times but Jesus’ light still shines giving us guidance and hope.
Gentle Power
“Look, your king is coming to you. He is gentle and brings peace.” (Matthew 21: 5)
Our Lord comes in power as a king yet with gentleness and peace.
