THE NARROW WAY

Jesus says, “He is the 𝗪𝗔𝗬, the 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗧𝗛, and the 𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗘.”
This tells me 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘦 things.
There is another way we may travel, there are lies, and there is a counterfeit way of living.
When something is “𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘰𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳” we usually get the instruction manual and figure out how to fix that which is broken.
Jesus is that instruction manual—He demonstrates how humanity was originally made to look and function.
He restores us back to our 𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻.
We were never designed to be self seekers. When we elevate ourselves and try to be our own god, only concerned about our needs and wants. We are functioning outside of what we were created for.
The designer of humanity models that the opposite is true. True life is a love that is 𝗌𝖺𝖼𝗋𝗂𝖿𝗂𝖼𝗂𝖺𝗅. Resulting in order, beauty, and peace.
Jesus said, “𝗙𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝗠𝗲!”
We may feel it’s impossible as we witness how Jesus lived. But He says, with God ALL things are possible.
The beautiful thing is, everybody is invited.
As we accept this invite and humbly lay our lives down. He exchanges it with a brand new one. With a free “𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘩𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘯” called the Holy Spirit who reminds and empowers us to walk that narrow road called TRUE LIFE.

“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
