Reba McEntire sang a song entitled “Is there life out there?”   It is a song about a wife wondering if there is life outside of her current situation.  She is not wanting to leave it, she is just wondering is there more?  That song is so true today.  People are wondering is there more to life than just this.  What will make this life more meaningful, deeper, richer, fulfilling?  Is it drugs, alcohol, sex, adrenaline rush, relationships, or exercise? 

 

Our children, our grandchildren, our society, even our church members are asking is there more to life than just this?  The answer is yes there is.  Now you are thinking, he is going to say Jesus.  You are right.  Well, lets go on preacher.  No, lets not.  We have undervalued the name of Jesus.  It is now a catch name, cliche, or scapegoat word when we are in trouble.  But it is the most powerful name in the universe.  Even demons cringe when HIS name is mentioned, but not humans.  The universe stops at the mention of HIS name, but humans use it in cussing.

 

At the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord of all.  Is there life out there?  Yes.  It is found in Jesus.  For the next few devotions, we are going to look at this Jesus.  This man who is God.  This God/Man who created life.  Who gave life to all.  Who lived life fully.  So if we want to know, is there life?  Who go to the one who created it.  Let’s see what HE says in the next few days.

 

Ready Beloved.  Let look.  Think about it.   John 1:1 – 5.
