The Way

"...And you know the way where I am going."

Jesus, John 14:4

Jesus told His disciples that He was leaving them and going to prepare a place for them. He told them that they know the way there. Thomas said they didn't know where He was going so how could they know the way! To that Jesus answered that He is the way, the truth and the life. 

The disciples were thinking they had to know where He was going before they could know the way to get there. What they didn't consider, is that not only is Jesus the way, but He is the destination. He is our living destination! Jesus went on to tell them to abide in Him. We must remain in Him. Jesus is not a vehicle we use to arrive at a certain place. He is the place we are seeking. When we find Him, we must stay there--in Him. When we do, we will be with Him wherever He is. What a joy!
