The Hard Road Before Us

[Pilgrim]

Father in Heaven, Thank you for Your Holy Word, revealing to us the choice is between the narrow path and the wide path. Help us each day as we yoke ourselves to Jesus, the Son of Man, and walk in Christ, in the ways of the LORD. Help us endure until the end, with hope that the Almighty will welcome us into your Kingdom in Heaven, your Holy Hill. God's will be done. In Jesus' name. Amen.

A daily prayer that we would "endureth to the end" and "shall be saved." (Matthew 10:22)

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." (John 3:16)

Don't be misled by Satan's lies. Avoid that wide road paved by Satan's glitter of false happiness. He dangles an artificial light of hope before the world, one of riches, pleasures, and worldly selfish desires, but his light is false and the wages of sin is death! Over and over again we see with celebrities, who present a worldly model of acquiring wealth and status, that living in darkness, blindly bumping into each other along the way, ends in destruction. At the end of Satan's wide road is a cliff that does not lead to lasting happiness at all. Seek the narrow path. Pick up your cross and follow Jesus. Obey his commands. He is the way and the truth and the light and none will come before the Father but by the Son. Amen.

"All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." (Isaiah 53:6)

Heavenly Father, Thank You for the great comfort You bring us when our hearts are heavy with loss. Help us endure to the end, through God's love from above and salvation in Christ Jesus, knowing our LORD and Redeemer lives. Holy Spirit be upon us with comfort in our time of need. God's will be done until we meet up in the Promised Land. In Jesus' name. Amen.

"God Only Cries" by Diamond Rio

On an icy road one night
A young man loses his life
They marked the shoulder with a cross
An' his family gathers round
On a piece of Hallowed ground
Their hearts are heavy with their loss
As the tears fall from their eyes
There's one who'll always sympathize.

God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are left to carry on
An' all the angels up in Heaven
They're not grieving because they're gone
There's a smile on their faces
'Cause they're in a better place than, mmm, baby, than, oh
God only cries for the living
'Cause it's the living that are so far from home.

It still makes me sad
When I think of my Grand-dad
I miss him each and every day
But I know the time will come
When my own gradnson
Wonders why I went away
Maybe we're not meant to understand
Till we meet up in the Promised Land.
