Today's verses are from Matthew 7: 13-14. Jesus is teaching to a large crowd. There are two gates, He says, "Enter though 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 is that leads to life, and only a few find it."
In this day and age that we are living in it sure seems like there are many people on that wide road! In my own life, I have family members on that wide road and it breaks my heart. They all know my belief in Jesus Christ. I am so grateful to be on the narrow road! The narrow road is much more difficult than the wide road for sure! However, I want to be on the road that leads me to heaven, no matter how hard and rocky and painful the narrow road can be!
OK, what do we do with all the people on the "wide road?" We pray for them! We pray for "Divine Appointments" with them! One thing we should not do is to judge them! Judgement is for God Almighty!!!
Honestly, we as Christ-Followers must learn that we are not to judge people who don't believe in Jesus. We are to witness to them with how we speak and love and in our actions. There is an old song I learned in church, "They will know we are Christians by our love!
May God continue to bless you this day!
I am His,
