Thomas was getting all upset because he didn’t know where he
was going. He knew that Jesus was the
Way to get there . . . but he didn’t know what the destination was. And that was bothering him.
And I suppose we can relate to that. You know, if we’ve ever planned anything—from
a career, to family, to a vacation—we probably had an idea of where we were
going. We like to plan; we like to know
what’s up ahead. It’s why we don’t like
to drive behind semis; you can’t see what’s coming. And we can get upset when our view is
blocked.
But Jesus says to Thomas (in so many words): I’ve already
told you where we’re going, but don’t worry about it anyway—just follow me.
And Jesus says to us (in so many words): Don’t worry about
where you going, and what’s up ahead.
Just follow me. Sit back and
enjoy the ride through life; don’t worry . . . I’ll get you to where you need
to be. You have faith in God . . . have
faith also in me.
