There is a joke in the church that little kids answer every question with, "Jesus." But you know what? They're really not that far off. In some way, shape, or form, the answer to every question really is, Jesus.
The answer to sin? Jesus (John 3:16). The answer to death? Jesus (Rev 1:18). The answer to judging other people? Looking to Jesus instead (Goff, 2019). The answer to work life balance? Centering on Jesus (Yohn, 2022). I could go on and on. At the heart of everything the answer really is Jesus!
Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life (John 14:6). Jesus created all things, and in him all things hold together (Col 1). We are to fix our eyes on Christ (Col 3). The Bible says that we should have faith like little children (Matt 18:1-4). Looking to Jesus as the answer is one way to return to this.
