Lord, to Whom Shall We Go?

"From that time, many of his disciples went back and walked no more with him.
Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away?
Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.
And we believe and are sure that thou art that Christ, the son of the living God."
(John 6:66-69).

I love the simplicity and the power of that scripture. With Peter, I add my voice: Jesus is the Christ, the son of the living God, and there is nowhere else to go, no one else to turn to. Jesus Christ is the One to whom we should also go--with every heartache, every trial, every triumph, every anything. He is the One to follow. He is the source of eternal life, the Healer with the solution to every problem, the Master and Teacher with the answer to every question. As Peter noted, there is no one else to go to, because everything we need is found in Christ, the son of the living God.
