A young woman travels to a new city for an interview, relying on GPS. Halfway there, the signal drops, leaving her stranded at a confusing crossroads. A local man approaches and says, “I know the way — follow me.” Though hesitant, she agrees. He leads her through hidden streets.
She arrives just in time — relieved, grateful, and wiser.
Jesus’ words, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life” (John 14:6), still speak deeply to every heart looking for direction. In a world full of paths, opinions, and distractions, He doesn’t offer a map, He offers Himself. Like the traveler who trusts a guide in unfamiliar territory, we are invited to follow Jesus, even when we don’t fully understand the route. Jesus will lead you home.
“I am the way, and the truth, and the life” (John 14:6)
A Journey of Reflection and Action
Having read this reflection, take a step forward by starting a guidance journal. Write down one area of your life where you currently feel lost or uncertain, and commit to seeking Jesus’ direction in that situation over the next week. Revisit your journal to note any clarity or guidance you receive. Deepen your meditation by setting aside time each day to read and pray over John 14:6, Proverbs 3:5-6, and Psalm 32:8—ask God to reveal how these verses apply to your journey. Share this message with someone who might be struggling, encouraging them with the reminder that Jesus is their guide. Finally, gather with friends or a small group to discuss: “How can we practically trust Jesus as ‘the way’ in our daily decisions?”
