Narrow or Wide -- You Choose.


Narrow or Wide
By: Erin

It was brought to my attention tonight that we have a choice to make
We can choose the path that is narrow
Or
We can choose the path that is wide

Jesus reminds that the wide will lead to destruction
And narrow will lead to life
But will too cause us great strife

Choosing wide is easier for we get to live the way we want
Be greedy, selfish, prideful, lustful, angry, self-centered
And do all of that, more and also flaunt

But narrow is hard – we must learn from our mistakes and trials
Keep going when it’s difficult – walk a hundred more miles
Narrow takes so much work and more
For we must train ourselves, be disciplined, fight temptations, and withstand trail….
….because it is Christ who we adore

Ultimately though, those on the narrow path rest in eternal life
After all the hardship trial and strife
Rest in Heaven and they meet the King of Kings
While the others found Hell, simply because they were obsessed with earthly things

This is a choice for each of us personally between you and God up high
But remember this life is temporary – one day we will all die
And what will come will last forever more
And lead you either to eternal Hell, or Heaven’s supposedly “pearly white” door

MATTHEW 7:13
