Words of Eternal Life #820

66  From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. 67  Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” 68  But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” (John 6:66–68, NKJV)

It is estimated the average person hears about 30,000 words a day, or almost 11 million words a year. That’s a lot of words! Of those words, how many contain the information, insight and instruction needed to obtain eternal life? Unless one is listening to the words of Jesus Christ (His New Testament), then the answer is “zero.” When all is said and done, only the word of God can feed our souls and give us eternal life. Are you listening? Or, have you stopped listening to the words of Christ, and walked away from Jesus? If so, you are on the path that leads to death. The only one we can turn to for words of eternal life is Jesus. Do not leave Him. Draw ever closer to Him and take receive from Him the words of eternal life.
