Lost in life's maze?

Do you remember as a kid the mazes you did? Where you had to start in one place and take your pencil and try to find the one path that would lead you out of the maze. The problem was there was never more than one correct path. I was reminded of this today as I was reading John 1:51 it says:

Then he said, “I tell you the truth, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God going up and down on the Son of Man, the one who is the stairway between heaven and earth.”

There are a couple of things that stood out to me.
1. In John's Gospel this was the very first thing that Jesus taught his disciples that he was the only way to Heaven. He also started by saying I tell you the truth. Must have been important.

2. Jesus is still to this day the one thing that separates Christianity from all other religions.

There are all kinds of people in the world that pray to gods (notice the little g) But Jesus is the only way to the one true God. (notice the big G)

So in this maze called life just like the ones on paper there is only one way out and it's up.
