The Way That Leads to Life

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” – Matthew 7:13,14 Yesterday, I shared the idea that embracing responsibility is crucial for enhancing both your life and the world around you. When we take on roles such as teacher, mentor, foster parent, adoptive parent, or even pet owner, these responsibilities challenge us to grow, to become bigger and they add more value to those in a sphere of influence. We are compelled to love those who depend on us and to care for individuals who look up to us.  As I grew and evolved, I reflected on my past self when I thought, “I have the right” to lounge around and do whatever I pleased.
