How is it possible to have access to so much information and research, yet miss the wisdom of the ages? How could a person sit under a lifetime of good Biblical teaching yet be victimized by negativity and cynicism? The road is wide toward destruction but the way is narrow to fin life. Few are those who find it.
Matthew 7:14 - For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.
This verse is shocking and sobering as we have so much anger and division in our culture. Reading listening, reflecting and praying hopefully will connect our head storehouse of information to transform our hearts and lives for kingdom living.
“Millions call themselves by His name, it is true, and pay some token homage to Him, but a simple test will show how little He is really honored among them. Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who or what is ABOVE, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time. Those other things will be exalted above. However the man may protest, the proof is in the choice he makes day after day throughout his life.” - A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God
