Jesus says to “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 will find it”…..Matt 7:13-14. Jesus is telling us not to go the way of the world. “Do not be conformed to this world…” says Jesus. If we look around its easy to see that most people conform to the ways of the world. The examples of this are endless. People follow the glitz and glamour, the money trail, to their own destruction. I think this is obvious. If one truely believes that Jesus is the way then he will not go the way of the world and rather seek the ways of Jesus which is the narrow way.
We really don’t fully understand Jesus and his ways but the more we accept him and pay attention to him the more we begin to see the world and its ways for what they are. It takes effort on our part, work on our part. A purposeful decision to see Jesus as “the Way, the Truth and the Life”.
Romans 12:2 – Do not conform to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Have a good week and God Bless you.
