The road less traveled

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.

Here is a twist, I am going to quote poetry!
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference. – Robert Frost
How many times have you come to a point in your life where you had to choose which path you would take?
Do you weigh all of your options, discuss with friends and family to get their vote on what choice you should make?
Majority rules is the edict of democracy, a blessed political philosophy for so many people over the course of history.
But, "majority rule" doesn't apply to the Kingdom of God.
God sets the standard, not us.
God's holiness is the goal, not just trying to be better than someone else.
Most, regrettably, will never find the way of the Lord.
Everyone wants it their way but listen, there is one crucial problem with wanting things our way: it leads to ultimate disaster.
God, the Creator and Sustainer of all life, is the only One who can set life's agenda.
Will you choose His path?


Have a blessed day!
