Matthew 7:13-14 The narrow gate and path


Scripture: Matthew 7:13-14   13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Observation:  The road is narrow and the gate is small.  Jesus tells us to enter through the narrow gate and it is hard to find.

Application:  I need to look for the narrow gate. It is the harder gate, more difficult.  I need to be purposeful at finding it each day, minute, second. 

Prayer:  Lord help me to always be focused on you.  Forgive me for the many distractions I let in.  I want to be with you on the narrow path.   I want to walk your path of life, no matter how narrow.  Help me Lord to see the path you have for me.  Thank you Lord for loving me so much that you came to this earth, died for me, and rose again.  It is hard for me to comprehend how great it your love for me.
