FOLLOW THE NARROW PATH
There are those who say that there are many paths to God. They say that all religions are essentially the same, so it doesn’t really matter what you believe as long as you have faith. Yet, God’s Word says otherwise. For there are many paths that seem right, but only one that leads to life.
Jesus talked about this. He warned, “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few” (Matt. 7:13-14).
So, what is the right way, where is this narrow gate? Jesus answered this question. He said, “I am the gate” (John 10:9). Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6).
What you believe matters. Even more importantly, who you believe matters. Jesus tells us that He is the only way to having eternal life and a relationship with God.
PRAYER: Dear Father, we see the truth of this biblical proverb today. For there are many who claim to know a better way, but we trust Your word. And even more, we trust Your Son. We have decided to follow Him. For He is the way to life. Strengthen us now to be always faithful to follow Him. In Jesus’ name, amen.
