One Of The Few

I’m the same as everyone else, I seek what others seek - that path that leads to life amidst this world so dark and bleak. And as I’ve sought, I’ve often read that - few shall find the gate that puts us on this path that’s penned as narrow and as straight. Thus, I can’t help but wonder – “Will I be one of the few who by chance finds this narrow gate and then knows what to do?” The odds against such seem as though I hardly stand a chance, when all there be to fill my sails are winds of circumstance. But somewhere also in the verse there is another clue - “Seek, you’ll find. Ask, you’ll receive. Knock, it shall be opened unto you.” So, it would seem that if I ever want to walk this path, I better take some time alone to pray and humbly ask, and make resolve – “No matter what he asks of me, I’ll do!” Then I can hold faith knowing that… I’ll be one of the few.
