   Dr. Billy Graham tells of a time early in his ministry when he arrived in a small town to preach at the First Baptist Church.  Wanting to mail a letter, he asked a young boy where the post office was.  When the boy had told him, Dr. Graham thanked him and said, "If you'll come to the Baptist church this evening, you can hear me telling everyone how to get to Heaven"

     "I don't think I'll be there," the boy said. "You don't even know your way to the post office!"

     For the believer, it's reassuring to know that Jesus did know the way to Heaven when he said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  No one goes to the Father except by me." (John 14:6)  He had been there and would provide the way to the Father by His death on a cross and His resurrection from the dead.  So if you want to know how to get to Heaven, stick with the One who has been there, visited us here on earth, and then proved to us the way back by resurrecting from the dead.
