"Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.” Matthew 7:13 

Destruction is not a nice word, we rather hear about joy and glory.
Why is it always so hard to enter glory?

The answer is simple; we are imperfect because of our inherited sinful nature.
We are not used to the life of God.
Everything He says seems strange to our nature; “Love your enemy”.

Our flesh fights against the ways of God. But if you want to reach your glorious destination, you will have to surrender yourself to the purifying power of the Holy Spirit.
And you know what; He just loves to help us.

He sends us trials just to let us see for ourselves that we can’t make it on our own.
He wants us to be completely dependent upon Him so he can teach us His way.

His way is supernatural. He raises the death, heals the sick and brokenhearted.
Are you ready to experience heaven with Him? Are you willing to let Him soothe away your pain and provide everything you need?

Open up your heart to Christ, and let His way become yours. His Spirit will guide you to your glorious destination, for you were created in the image of almighty God.
You we’re meant to be His child.

Let us worship our Father together in truth and love!

Love, Monique
