Devotion Matthew 7:13-14 Deeper Life On The One Road

Matthew 7:13-14 – 13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

John 14:6 – Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me…”

I am a broken man

Yet also rebuilt

The process happens

Daily

I cry most every day

And laugh till

My breath is taken away

Most every day

No, not mentally ill,

Spiritually growing

On a journey I walk forward

Never stopping

Advancing fastest when I

Kneel

Getting stronger when

I rest

In Him

Every day on the journey

Spiritual legs grow

Stronger

The pebble that once

Tripped me

Is now crushed

Beneath my feet

The rock that once blocked

Is now a stepping stone

The boulder I could

Find no way around

Is now a vantage point

For insight

As this journey

Advances

I still break

Most every day

I still cry

Most every day

And every day

Yes, every day

I am thankful

To Him who

Set me

On the path

Who walks beside me

With every step

Who is my

Sustenance

My peace

My joy

My strength

My teacher

My hero

Thank You

God Almighty

Thank You

For first

Loving me
