The Narrow Way

3 "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. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few." Matthew 7: 13-14 Read that and read it again. Think about what that means to you. "Enter by the narrow gate" - to me this is simply saying the narrow gate is the right one to enter through without having read the rest of the above scripture. "For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many." - This is something that is so hard for us to comprehend. Not everyone will go to heaven, actually by what this says, many people or most people will go to Hell because they will chose the wide gate and the easy way. By them choosing that way and following that path, they will find destruction in the end. Pain and suffering for eternity. What is eternity, I can't explain because I don...

Dancing WIth God

I did not write this. I can't remember where I found it. Just wanted to share. When I meditated on the word Guidance, I kept seeing "dance" at the end of the word. I remember reading that doing God's will is a lot like dancing. When two people try to lead, nothing feels right. The movement doesn't flow with the music, And everything is quite uncomfortable and jerky.. When one person realizes that, and lets the other lead, Both bodies begin to flow with the music. One gives gentle cues, perhaps with a nudge to the back Or by pressing Lightly in one direction or another. It's as if two become one body, moving beautifully. The dance takes surrender, willingness, And attentiveness from one person And gentle guidance and skill from the other. My eyes drew back to the word Guidance. When I saw "G": I thought of God, followed by "u" and "I". "God, "u" and "I" dance." God, you, and I dance. ...

A little Encouragement For The Discouraged

31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? Romans 8:31 (ESV) 13 I can do all things through him who strengthens me. Phil 4:13 (ESV) Well, I am writing again so thank God for this! I haven't written in a long time about the power of God and try to define him just a little but more. I could never define everything about God but I am surely not going to stop until I am dead. I have been talking to it seems like so many people recently about either coming back to God and giving him a second chance. The above verses seem to come to my mind so much when I am talking to them. To me, I would call these encouragement verses. These verses are so profound. "If God is for us, who can be against us" I use this one to tell people who are very discouraged and just want to give up. I ask them to give him a second chance because with the power of God behind you, nothing and I mean nothing will stand in your way. This verse gives us that comfort for...
