Click

What comes to your mind when you see the word click? Various things and ideas I'm sure such as a seat belt, a gun out of ammo, or even a maybe even a recent movie titled Click. My thought here as nothing to do with that rather, gears turning and some insights.

I was reading in John chapter 4 using The Message yet, called Conversations with Eugene H. Peterson where he shares his insights and thoughts from time to time about the passage your reading. He was talking about how verses 43-54 link up with his first sign when he turned the water into wine specifically the man who asked Jesus to heal his son. Eugene stated that the father took Jesus simply at His word without any supercool sign or evidence his son was healed. Just his words (Jesus).

Now, I thought, that is what we have to take regarding Jesus. Some may say, well there is historical evidence that Jesus existed Jerusalem etc. Jesus raising from the dead was a miracle yet, in reality we have no evidence or super cool signs to back that up. One might ask, well then what do we have? Only the words found in Scripture specifically Jesus stating He would rise up again after 3 days. That's it. We weren't there to witness it or confirm it.

Words, yet what do we as believers do? We take Jesus at His word.


I may be taking it too far/a huge stretch yet, that's what clicked in my head. I take Jesus at His word i.e. raised up again & He's the truth and the light & He's my savior.

Hope that made sense to you all and have a good one! :)
