Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure by giving them a new command to love one another, promising to return for His people, and declaring that He is the way, the truth, and the life. Our love for one another should set us apart and show the world that we belong to Jesus. We can live with hope and confidence, knowing that Jesus will return for His Church. Because Jesus is the only way to the Father, we can trust Him completely for our salvation and eternal future.
Jesus is the Resurrection and the Life—the One who meets us in the middle of life’s hardest moments and gives us hope that death does not have the final word. When God’s timing doesn’t make sense, do you trust His plan and purpose, or do you find yourself becoming rattled? When life is hard, do you cling to Jesus, knowing that He understands what you are going through and is with you in the middle of your trouble? Because Jesus has defeated death, do you face the future with the confidence that death is not the end?
