Reflect
In the Gospel of John are seven “I AM” statement from Jesus: “I am the bread of life…the light of the world…the door…the good shepherd…the resurrection and the life…the way and the truth and the life…and the true vine.” Why did Christ speak these seven great I AM statements in His ministry? How do they bring us closer to Him?
Pray
Merciful Christ,
You gave us the seven “I AM” statements in the Gospel of John
as an easy reminder that You love and care for us,
a constant reminder of Your identity and mission
as our Savior, Sustainer, and Sure Guide.
Continue to call out to us,
guiding us ultimately to Your heavenly throne.
Act
Memorize a different I AM statement for each day of the week, pondering how Christ uses that statement to bring us further into the life of grace.
