Insight
After many of Jesus' followers had deserted him, he asked the 12 disciples if they were also going to leave. Peter replied, “To whom would we go?” In his straightforward way, Peter answered for all of us- there is no other way. Though there are many philosophies and self-styled authorities, Jesus alone has the words of eternal life.
Challenge
People look everywhere for eternal life and miss Christ, the only source. Stay with him, especially when you are confused or feel alone.
