“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
Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the
Father except through me. If you really know me,
you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen
him.” John 14:6-7
lost in this sea of darkness,
sentenced to die from the day
we are born,
guilty as charged,
eternally separated,
forever gone;
the dreams of men
are like birds on the wind,
shifting and rearranging,
living and dying,
here today,
gone tomorrow;
there are many roads in life,
leading to far away,
unknown destinations,
creating their own specific
brand of justification,
finding their own particular
version of truth,
but no matter how many
truths we create,
no matter how many
different ways
we want to believe;
there is only one truth,
there is only one way,
there is only one road;
it does not bend to fit our
ideas or desires,
it does not go in the direction
we demand it to go,
it is final,
it is absolute;
that is how truth works;
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 who find it.
