Jesus
said,"Strive (struggle)
to get in through the narrow
door; for I tell you that
many will try to enter and
will not be able"
Luke 13:24
What is the narrow gate,
Lord ?
It is the entrance of the
Father's will. So few have
seen or see now that this
is the surest and most rewarding
entry into the Kingdom.
All is contained in direction
and sustenance and illumination
in embracing the Father's
will. Those who see and
request admission at this
door are welcomed and progress
steadily and surely.
But discerning the Father's
will is a lifetime's occupation
and study. For it is a daily
involvement and commitment.
And that is why many who,
in time, see what they should
do lack the expertise in
discipleship which those
who have served faithfully
have learnt, namely, discovering
and carrying out the Father's
will.
