Narrow 1

 The Beatitudes seem to go against much of our world. We live in such a busy hurried and noisy world. The words of Jesus are inverse of our temptation to improve our resume, reputation and to gain power or possessions. His kingdom is upside down to the way we are accustomed to living. What are the implications to the narrow way?  How are we living like the broad and wide way?

“Our world continues on, faster and busier, and we are reminded that our souls were not created for the kind of speed to which we have grown accustomed. Thus, we are a people who are out of rhythm, a people with too much to do and not enough time to do it.” - Rich Villodas, The Deeply Formed Life
