Savior: What Only Jesus Offers

DAY 4 OF 5

Jesus offers His presence.

Some of Jesus's most comforting words to His best friends before He went to the cross are in John 14.

He says, “I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you.”

Jesus could have used many words here. But He chose this very powerful word, “orphan.” It means—fatherless, motherless, desolate, bereaved. And it's only used in the gospels once—and it's right here. Jesus knew that His friends would miss Him— that they would be confused.

He knew that being alone in the world was the most helpless feeling.

But Jesus promised something so significant in this verse—something life-changing. It's one of the greatest gifts He's given us—He’s promised we will never be alone.

You might feel alone. Maybe you've many people around you, but you feel abandoned. Will you allow the One who made this promise—and then He went to the cross, and lay down His life—will you let Him offer this gift to you…to be your Father forever?
