Matthew 7:13-14 "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."
Today’s Thought
We are finally back from vacation and in the office again. It was nice to be able to rest; Amy and I both needed it much. I had some amazing time to reflect on God's word and what it means today.
Remember the old saying…Just because everyone else is doing it doesn’t make it right. We live in a world where everyone seems to do what is right in his or her own eyes. Far too many people are doing what the world or popular culture calls “normal.”
However, Jesus said, the way that appears to be normal isn’t necessarily the right way to live. In fact, Jesus calls believers to live differently from the norm. Living differently than everyone else might cost us popularity, friendships or advancement in certain areas of life. No one ever said swimming up stream against the cultural current would be easy. However, it’s the way Jesus said would bring true life, fulfillment and the hope of eternal life. What path are you on? What crowd are you associating with? More importantly, who is following you and where are you leading them?
You are Loved!
