"I am the way, the truth and the life"

   "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." - John 14:6 

You probably have heard this passage many times in your life. But have you ever wondered what does it mean? Have you been looking for " the way, the truth and the life" meaning? If not, then I can assure you that these words can change your life forever.  I am going to try to tell you what does it mean. 

     Jesus said unto him, I am the way,.... Our Lord takes the opportunity of this discourse about the place he was going to, and the way unto it, more fully to instruct his disciples concerning himself, saying, "I am the way",  Christ is not merely the way, as he goes before his people as an example or merely as a prophet, pointing out unto them by his doctrine the way of salvation; but he is the way of salvation itself by his obedience and sacrifice nor is there any other he is the way of his Father's appointing, and which is entirely agreeable to the perfections of God, and suitable to the case and condition of sinners he is the way to all the blessings of the covenant of grace and he is the right way into a Gospel church state here no one comes rightly into a church of Christ but by faith in him and he is the way to heaven: he is entered into it himself by his own blood, and has opened the way to it through himself for his people: he adds, the truth he is not only true, but truth itself: this may regard his person and character he is the true God, and eternal life truly and really man as a prophet he taught the way of God in truth as a priest, he is a faithful, as well as a merciful one, true and faithful to him that appointed him and as a King, just and true are all his ways and administrations: he is the sum and substance of all the truths of the Gospel they are all full of him, and centre in him and he is the truth of all the types and shadows, promises and prophecies of the Old Testament; they have all their accomplishment in him and he is the true way, in opposition to all false ones of man's devising. And this phrase seems to be opposed to a notion of the Jews, that the law was the true way of life, and who confined truth to the law. They have a saying, that , "Moses and his law are the truth"; this they make Korah and his company say in hell. That the law of Moses was truth, is certain but it is too strong an expression to say of Moses himself, that he was truth; but well agrees with Christ, by whom grace and truth came in opposition to Moses, by whom came the law: but when they say , "there is no truth but the law", they do not speak truth. More truly do they speak, when, in answer to that question, "what is truth?" it is said, that he is the living God, and King of the world, characters that well agree with Christ. 

And the life: Christ is the author and giver of life, natural, spiritual, and eternal; or he is the way of life, or "the living way"; in opposition to the law, which was so far from being the way of life, that it was the ministration of condemnation and death: he always, and ever will be the way, all in this way live, none ever die; and it is a way that leads to eternal life: and to conclude all the epithets in one sentence, Christ is the true way to eternal life It is added by way of explanation of him, as the way, 
no man cometh unto the Father but by me; Christ is the only way of access unto the Father; there is no coming to God as an absolute God, not upon the foot of the covenant of works, nor without a Mediator; and the only Mediator between God and man is Christ: he introduces and presents the persons and services of his people to his Father, and gives them acceptance with him. 

That's how I do understand it. Christmas is coming and I thought that maybe it can be the time for you, to start the new life in Christ. Living with Jesus is an awesome thing but you have to let Him in cause He is waiting for the invitation. 

Amen.

Something new.

The end of something is begining of something else. Summer is over, high-school is over and now it's time to grow up. I was thinking that it's never gonna happen and I'll saty child forever... But it did and it's time to wake up and start the new life.

I've just started college. Everyone I know says: "It's the best time in your life! You'll love it!", but I'm not so excited as they are... And I don't even know why. Maybe when I'll get to know everything about my studies, get to know my class mates then I'll change my attitude. But now, I miss my home, family and the old friends. I feel so lonley here. And it's actually funny because since I can remember, I've always wanted to leave. My dream was working abroad and move out. I've never thought it can be so hard to abondon family and just leave. Now I can see that it's hard, very hard. 

But the time has come. I have to learn how to live on my own. Parents aren't here anymore. IT IS TIME TO BECOME AN ADULT... and it scares me so much. 

Right before my movement I had an argument with my friend. And its awful because I want to talk to her and tell her how am I feeling, how is college and I can't.. It doesn't help at all... I fon't know if I should make the first step orjust wait for she to text me... I don't really know what to do. I miss her so much. 

But it is the one thing I am sure about. God is with me and He holds me. I have my Best Friend just a prayer away. And it helps me to get up every single day- this knowledge that He is next to me and I can rely on Him. He comforts me all the time and fills my heart with peace. Without Him I wouldn't be able to face all of the problems on my way. He catches me when I am falling and it is the best feeling ever- being aware of that fact. 

Lately I've been watching the movie "Do you belive?". In my opinion this movie is great. It shows how people, who love God are able to sacrifice things they have for others and for God. They don't care what others will think about them. If they decided to follow Jesus, no one can stop them. This movie shows, how God loves us and how often we even don't know that something is a blessing and we don't see any point but God knows what's best for us and He gots plans for everyone. His timing is perfect and He sees what we really need instead of what we think we need... He is the only One who can calm every storm. I know, sometimes it's hard to belive without any borders but if you do, there are no regrets then! It's so worth to belive, fully belive. The conviction that You are the Child of God is the best thing ever! And it's only up to you if you decide to follow Jesus or not. I know that following Jesus can be for you, let's say "uncomfortable" but the prize is high, right? He died for you and me to cleanese us from sins and give us the entire life- you can have it, you just need to give your life to Jesus. 

Good luck!

Something special.

And Summer is almost over... I think that these holidays were totally the best!!! I could be part of great two camps, where God's word was shared and it was an awesome expierience!

I even don't know, where did the vacation go...It was really good time. It was great to have an oportunity to see old friends and make new ones. I've learnt a lot and I was able to teach a lot as well. For the first time in my life, I was feeling that the thing I do, really matters and that it can help someone. I loved seeing how people, who love God, share His word with others. It is the proof, how much God loves us, by using us to do work for Him. 

I've expierienced something really scary during one camp. One girl came to me and hugged me... I was wondering what's going on, cause I haven't known her... She wasn't in my group, I haven't talked to her before and I was surprised that she chose me to tell abot something, what's happened. I decided to talk to her so we went to the tent to be alone. When she started telling me, that one of her friends comitted suicide I was frozen... When I saw tears in her eyes... I haven't had any idea what should I do. It was the first time when I offered a prayer to someone I don't know... And it was the only thing that came into my mind...So I started praying but I had problems with words, I didn't know what should I say, I wanted to be careful not to hurt her more. I didn't even know if she believs in God or not... But after that she hugged me once again and thanked me for being there for her. It was one of the greatest moments in my life! I helped someone, who was feeling alone, sad and haven't seen any purpose to live.

I think that God wanted to show me, that it doesn't matter, if we know someone or not, we should help them in the very best way we can and show that we care and are there for. That's what God's people do. They help and they don't want anything in return. They show people the right way. And I know that it is worth to do things like that. It's worth to work for God!!! 

Besides camps, I had an opportunity to meet some new amazing people, who started to have an influence on my life. They showed me what really matters, what is right, what should we care about. Having truly conversations with them was a lesson I will always remember. Some of these people live so far away that the contact is possible only via the internet, others live in Poland what's cool, cause I know, that we are going to see each other as often as possible. I know that I can rely on them and call them whenever I want. I am sure that they will help me when I need it. And one women, she thought me that giving is important, but when someone offers you his help, no matter what kind of help is it, you should take it. You have to learn how to take and give at the same time. You have to let people help you. You have to be brave enough to ask for help. Some people think that  it is the weakness- asking for help. But IT IS NOT! It's normal that we need help and we should allow people to help us. 

And I know, who is going to help you ALWAYS... God will do that. He carres for you, simply because you are his child and He is your Father. When you pray, you can tell Him whatever you want, He knows what you are thinking about before you say anything. He knows everything about you and wants your happiness! He knows the depths of your heart and He loves you the same! You have to remember that, Brother. 

And... It does not cost anything to talk to Him. Just your time...but I can guarantee thet it is worth, so maybe you can try it some time? Just think about it!

Lots of God's love!!!
