His way - or the highway!
Soul Snack 9/154 ... The Horizon of the Soul - B.
Fiercely engaged within the soul a precarious battle waged. One wrong movement could spell death. The path of righteousness so alluring, the paths of rigths so parallel!
Both path's disappeared into the unseen distance across the horizon of the soul. Also both paths promised so much and beckoned so desirably. Yet beyond the horizon both paths would remarkably diverge never to be parallel or even see each other again.
Careful inspection revealed only one was wide, well sealed and apparently safe from wild animals. Only the wide one could accomodate many people. It was already crowded!
The second path was far more uneven in surface, narrow and either side revealed bushland with maybe even hidden dangers. This path had very few on it.
When I follow Jesus it is only 'His way or the highway!' It seems most take the highway. Today again, I choose His way.
The righteous path can be harder to walk, but it's destination reaches up and is out of this world.
