Check out the words for the song "Jesus is the Answer for the World Today" by Andraé Crouch.
"Jesus is the answer
For the world today
Above Him there's no other
Jesus is the way
"If you have some questions
In the corners of your mind
And traces of discouragement
And peace you cannot find
Reflections of the old past,
They seem to face you everyday
There's one thing I know for sure
That Jesus is the way
Let me hear you now (Jesus is the answer)
"I know you got mountains
That you think you cannot climb
I know that your skies have been dark
You think the sun won't shine
In case tou don't know
I'm here to tell you
That the Word of God is true
And everything that He promised
I tell you He would do it for you
Let me tell gou that (Jesus is the answer)"
John 14:1-7
1 "Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me.
2 "In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you?
3 "And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.
4 "And you know the way to where I am going.”
5 "Thomas said to him, “Lord, we do not know where you are going. How can we know the way?”
6 "Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7 "If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him.”"
It is in the desperate times of our lives, Father, that we know that we can call out to You for help. Jesus encourages the discouraged with peace, hope, and love. Thank You, Jesus, for being the answer for the world today. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
Blessings on the journey, and remember that the best is yet to come.
