These thoughts are to grow my faith and walk with God. The narrow road, contrary to how it is often perceived, allows doubt and encourages sincere, open-minded inquiry, free of partisanship. Hence the reason God calls it narrow. "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." Matthew 7:13-14 © Barb Harwood, 2008-present.
Today’s quote is from Warren Wiersbe, who insightfully states:
“Self-evaluation can be a dangerous thing, because we can err in two directions:
Making ourselves better than we are,
or
Making ourselves worse than we really are.”
Of course, it goes without saying that God will certainly help us arrive at what is actually true for us at any point in our life: the best, the worst, and everything in between. Only then will we have something concrete to work with.
