  • The Way Home – May 8, 2026

    https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260508dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6 The Way Home The apostle Thomas once asked a question that everyone wants to know the answer to: “How do we know the way?” How do we know the way to God, to heaven, to happiness? Jesus did not hand Thomas directions. He handed him, and all of us, himself. He said, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” He is not one option among many. He is the way. That means the path to God does not begin with us. That hurts our pride. We would rather build something of our own. We want the work, recognition, and control. But if the way did depend on us, questions would always remain: Did I do enough? Did I miss something? Did I fail? Thankfully, Jesus removes those questions. He did not stand at the end of the road and point. He marched the way for us. He lived the life we could not live. He died the death we deserved. He rose to life and opened the way to the Father. Then he declares, “No one comes to the Father except through me.” Jesus is not trying to discourage you. He is giving you certainty. In Christ, you have access to God. Stop searching. Stop striving. Stop relying on your strength. The world is full of confusing voices and competing truths. But Jesus gives us clarity: There is a way to God—his name is Jesus. Prayer: Lord Jesus, thank you for opening the way to the Father. Keep me firmly in you and lead me safely to the eternal home you are preparing. Amen.   Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Military Devotions

  • Military Devotion – You Need Help – May 8, 2026

    Watch the Devotion Based on John 14:15-21  You Need Help Deployments come, schedules shift constantly, uncertainty hangs in the air—who holds things together? Who carries the weight at home? Who steadies the children, manages the household, bears the worry? Military spouses do.  You live a life of quiet sacrifice. Of constant adjustment. Of strength that often goes unseen. You step in again and again to help your family endure and thrive under pressure. And that matters. It reflects something deeper. Because every act of patient love, every moment of selfless service, every quiet sacrifice—points to the greater help we all need. Even the strongest mother cannot carry everything. Even the most faithful spouse needs support. Because no matter how capable, how resilient, how determined—we all come back to the same truth: You and I, we need help.    And that’s where Jesus’ promise meets us all— single or married, mothers, fathers, children, war fighters, civilians. He promises help.   Before Jesus goes to the cross and rises from the dead and the ascends into heaven, he reminds his disciples, and us, “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever—the Spirit of truth . . . I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you” (John 14:16-17a, 18). Jesus gives the Holy Spirit to all of us, to you. To remind you that your strength isn’t what saves you. Christ is. To remind you that all of the guilt you carry for not doing enough, it isn’t enough to save you, but Christ is. To remind you that peace isn’t found when the bills are paid on time, the kids are well behaved, the yard is mowed and you found quiet time for yourself with a glass of wine and Netflix – peace is found in Christ, his forgiveness for you, his life for you, his resurrection for you. Peace is found in the truth that your eternal home is secure, no matter what a hot mess your house looks like today.  You – you and I – we need help, and Jesus gives it, by sending his Holy Spirit to you.   Prayer: Heavenly Father, in his incarnation your Son took on our human flesh and was born of the Virgin Mary. He submitted to his mother, honoring and obeying her, so fulfilling the commandment where we have not. On this Mother’s Day, graciously accept our thanksgiving for our mothers, whom you have given to us. Teach us to honor them aright — loving, obeying and giving thanks for them. Strengthen all women with child and give them safe delivery. Comfort all women who long to have children but cannot, that they may find their consolation in you and your unfailing love. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.     Written and recorded by Rev. Paul Horn, WELS National Civilian Chaplain to the Military, San Diego, California.
