Matthew 7:13-14

“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

Dear Jesus,

I have been challenged throughout my life by people who said that there has to be more than one way to heaven.  But here you remind me that it is a narrow way that leads to life eternal.  Your words make me think long and hard about getting it right.  I know that if it depends on me I will never make it.  You are the narrow way.  You lived a perfect life in my place and hung there on the cross with my sins nailed through your soul. I trust in you.  I don't trust in myself.   I would never want to diminish your personal gift for me by saying there could be ways that people could find a self made way to eternal life. Help me point people to your great gif, so they find the narrow way too. 

Amen

Pastor Don Patterson

The way to heaven through Christ is narrow but easy to find in the gospel.
