When the Bible talks about Jesus making a way for us, it’s not talking about a path similar to the one a child makes by kicking his Legos off a thin bit of carpet to his bed. Nor is it talking about clearing the weeds to form a winding path and putting down some mulch so we don’t get our feet muddy.

No, Jesus has made a way for us to live in the very heart of the Father, and when he laid down his life for us, he cleared every path, every field, every obstacle in the universe that would prevent us from running freely and fully into love itself.
