He replied, "Because you have so little faith, I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you. Matthew 17:20 NIV

You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken. For by your words you will be aquitted, and by your words you will be condemned. Matthew 12:32-37 NIV

Gateway To Heaven (a road less traveled)

"Take I-12 north to exit 7, cross under the overpass and turn left on insults and persecutions parkway. Watch out for fiery darts curve. Go 3 1/2 miles due west and you'll pass temptations bend on the left. Continue west through fellowship lane and you'll see a haystack to the north. Follow the dirt road about 4 ticks and you'll cross over comfort bay. Continue north until you go through loneliness peak and teardrops falls to peace place. When you have gone all the way to the end, you'll reach your destination.

Ever get directions this abnormal to follow? Imagine the road trip. It kinda makes the trip worth reconsidering, huh? Ever just wanted a more easier route to travel? You know, a way that is less bumpy but gets you to your destination safe and sound?

Listen to the words of Jesus: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me." John 14:6 NIV You can enter God's kingdom only through the narrow gate (obstacles standing close about). The highway to hell is broad (a life of self-gratification) and its gate is wide for the many who choose the easy way. But the gateway to life is small, and the road is narrow, and only a few find it." Matthew 17:13-14 NLT

To follow Jesus requires faith, discipline, and endurance. If you choose the easy way, you will have plenty of company but you will miss heaven. So let us choose to remain on the narrow road and "... let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us." Hebrews 12:1 NIV By devoting ourselves to Christ, we will find life in it's true fullness: a life in Christ. Jesus says, "... I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly." John 10:10 NKJV
