narrow

"Enter by the narrow gate;
for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction,
And there are many who go in by it. (So don't follow the crowd, follow your Shepherd the One who's love for you is stronger then death!)

"Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life,
and there are few who find it." Matthew 7: 13-14

Take His path... you will find that the difficulties are but an opportunity to experience His nearness, to become more aquainted with His everpresent guiding hand, to be awakened moreso to the beauty of His counternance, to know the magnitude of Jesus love for you His precious One in whom He loves deeply. Be one of the few in this story be found upon the path which has entered through the narrow gate.

unseen beauty...

The other day i was going for a walk to one of my favourite places back here. Up the headland and then to the beach.

While sitting and pondering with the LORD... i couldn't help but be drawn to the many shells that where at my

feet. All broken in some way but all seemed to me to be beautiful... the textures... the colours... the shapes... all beautiful.

Then i was just saying to Jesus how can it be that even in brokenness something can be so beautiful? And He answered me... that is what I think of you... these are My thoughts towards you... yes you are broken... but you are beautiful to Me.

Sometimes it's hard to think that in brokenness you can be found beautiful... but Jesus showed me that in His eyes this is a truth... we are beautiful to Him.
