After Matthew 7:13-14
It’s a narrow gate
by which you enter.
It’s a wide gate
by which you’re
swept along
with the crowd,
jostling, yelling,
swelling, angry,
believing the wide
gate is the entrance
to what the crowd
wants. It is the entrance
to what the crowd
earns. The narrow gate,
requiring movement
in almost single file,
is a hard, difficult
path but also the true
entrance.
Few choose it.

This imagery here reminds me of how orderly and politely thousands have waited patiently in long lines to view the Queen. When we choose the narrow gate we discover that it's the only worthwhile path to take in life.
Blessings, Glynn!
