The Narrow Path


“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." -Matthew 7:13-14
Choose the narrow path that leads to life. Living a life for the Lord is not supposed to be easy. We are actually expected to suffer for our faith. (1 Peter 4:12-19) No it won't be easy but it WILL be worth it. He has promised that. Romans 8:18 says "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us." What we go through now for His sake will be 100% worth it in the end when we reach our real home in heaven. So be encouraged by this and choose the narrow path to life even if you face insults, judgement, persecutions etc. It will be worth it when we are in the presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Find comfort in that when you suffer for Christ.
