Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. For the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Consider how you feel going down a path with gates ahead---wide gate or narrow gate? Which would you choose? Easy and carefree---wide gate that may begin a downhill stretch of the path; or would you choose the challenging narrow gate that may lead to a bit of an uphill climb? The paths are not labeled--“Destruction” and “Life”---but you need to make wise choices and ask God to show you along each step of the way which way is the good way—although it may be through the narrow gate---toward truth and life. Remember “Ask” and you will receive. Jesus beckons us from this gate at the Garden of Gethsemane to come to Him.
Lord---help us and those we love to make good decisions today. Guide us in your will and your ways.
