Christ, the WAY
The moment we commence our undertaking, at the very first step, we cast our eyes downward and think we hear him say, "I am the WAY." The road preaches to us Jesus — as the medium by which we escape wrath and obtain mercy. This highway leads us from sin — to holiness, from self — to God. It supports us in our approaches to the throne of grace, and enables us to enter into the holiest, by his precious blood. It conducts us directly to God, as being reconciled to the Father, and furnishes us with motives for gratitude at every step.
It is a living way — refreshing, strengthening, and enlivening the weak and timid traveler; thus rendering journeying pleasant and delightful.
It is indeed precious and profitable to come to God by Jesus Christ — we have not only safety but peace; "peace which passes understanding." Every cause of fear is removed. God provided the road that we may approach, and has sent us his invitation, saying, "Come boldly unto the throne of grace, that you may obtain mercy, and find grace to help you in every time of need!"
