The Way to Heaven Is Hard

Psalm_119:105

Here’s a quote I came across in my reading that is fitting to share here.

“Direction is much more important than speed. Many are going nowhere fast.” Christine Caine

Let’s get our directions clear. Our direction is Eternity with Yahweh!

Being pointed in the wrong direction will keep you lost. Turn yourself and align with Yahweh, now! Slow down and allow Yahweh to have the navigational controls. He’ll never steer you in the wrong direction.

Like the scripture says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet, and a light to my path.”

The question then begs an answer, “Who’s lamp are you allowing to light your path?”

Throughout HIS Word it talks about Jesus being The Light. It should be the brightest light around us. Any other light isn’t enough. Any other light will lead you the wrong direction.

I have night blindness. Once the daylight becomes dim I’m unable to see to drive. Every once in a great while, I get caught in that dim light trying to get home. Just recently I was in this pickle. In a situation like this, light is vitally important. In my situation, I wasn’t far from home. I pulled out of the driveway of the motorcycle repair shop where I’d just dropped off my husband to pick up a motorcycle he had there. I mentioned before we left that it’s a dangerous venture for me. It was nearing dark then. So, I’m driving down the street and all I could see was all the lights of the cars. I was mildly freaked out. My eyes searched the edge of the road to guide me. In that instance, the light was dangerous, because, it was the wrong light for me. I had to figure what I was going to do to navigate home. So, what did I do?

I decided not to take that path because there was too much traffic and not enough of the proper light. Quickly, I decided to turn at a traffic light that would lead me to the next traffic light and just follow those traffic lights down the path I needed to get home. It worked out great. One, because the path I chose had less traffic. Two, because it allowed me to travel a path that led me to my destination. Finally, it was the path least traveled and it was safe.

That leads me to a scripture in Luke 7.

Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter through the narrow gate. The gate is wide and the road is wide that leads to hell, and many people enter through that gate. But the gate is small and the road is narrow that leads to true life. Only a few people find that road.

Are you on the right road? Is the light for your path correct? Are you leading down the path to true life? Comment and share your story. Bless others and be blessed.

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, Yahweh, I lift up every reader that comes to this message. I pray that their path is lit with Your light and that they’re leading to true life with You, in Eternity. Thank You for all Your blessings and miracles, Yahweh. I pray for Your peace, grace, and mercy for everyone who finds this message. I thank You in advance for hearing and answering this prayer. In Jesus’ name, amen.
