“I Am…”
Don’t deny your needs. Find who you need.
Everyone longs for peace, security, and fulfillment. When we deny those needs it is pointless. Trying to meet them in an unhealthy way is counterproductive. Weakening in frustration when they are not met is unnecessary. God has a better plan for us all:
- “I am the bread of life” (John 6:35) – our need for Contentment
- “I am the door” (John 10:7,9) – our need for Direction
- “I am the good shepherd” (John 10:11) – our need for Protection
- “I am the light of the world” (John 8:12) – our need for Direction
- “I am the resurrection and the life” (John 11:25) – our need for Hope
- “I am the true vine” (John 15:1) – our need for Purpose
- “I am the way, the truth, and the life” (John 14:6) – our need for Peace
Most of us are tired of this treadmill of human effort. It is like running on a personal fulfillment track to nowhere. For example, are you burned out by people – tired of being let down again and again? Are you ready to give up searching for significance each time you accomplish another goal in life. No matter great our vision, or how much we achieve, we will always want something more because we are striving for that Feeling of unity that was created in the beginning with Adam in the garden.
Yet for everything we need, Jesus said, “I am.” And that is more than enough.
