Visiting my parents this weekend after dinner my girls and me went for a walk over what in the past had been a golf course. It has since closed, all the carts are gone, manicured fairways and greens are now over grown. There was one spot we were walking on the cart path, or what used to be a cart path. The words narrow is the path that leads to heaven. Each side of the path is overgrown with bushes and briars. If you stray too far off of the path and you'll get tangled up. This world throws things along our path that can distract us, that can try to lead us to places that will only tangle us up. Only in the love of Christ our savior can we stay on the narrow path. Trust in the one called wonderful, counselor, mighty god he will direct our steps!
“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate. The highway to hell is broad, and its gate is wide for the many who choose that way. But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it. (Matthew 7:13, 14 NLT)
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:5, 6 NLT)
