Matthew 7 Verses 13-14

Although the right path in life is very narrow and difficult, I'm glad to be on that right path.....

Matthew 7:13-14 As we skip along Going our merry way In the journeys of life Living day by day Smelling sweet flowers Or seeing a rainbow To give us a big smile So no one will know That deep down inside There is a struggle within Knowing not the right path Just keeps you wondering The path that seems right Is so difficult to go through Filled with pain and misery I am not sure what to do While most others travel On that wide and easy trail As they boast of their fortunes My path moves slowly like a snail So naturally I turn to my Bible To search for a new routine And I’ll be darn – I found it In the book of Matthew 7:13-14 Where it told me very clearly I am where I am supposed to be On the path with very few others The one God has planned for me I’ll keep skipping along with joy Since I am on the right track And I’ll be happy knowing That He has my back Florence McMillian (Flo)

Though the gate is small and the road narrow, you are not alone on this journey. Thank you for sharing your faith in poetry and for encouraging others in the faith to seek out answers from the Bible ~ John

One thing that threatens the Kingdom virtue, is the desire to live the earthly standard. Because it gradually kills the kingdom value in a man. This serves in time when i needed it, good expression and thanks for sharing.
