Jesus said, “Narrow is the way which leads unto life.” That word narrow is the Greek word “thlibo” and means: to press (as grapes), press hard upon, a compressed way, etc. So, if you are beginning to feel the pressures of this life, as if the walls of the world were closing in on you, fear not beloved, for this experience, although temporarily distressing, is a tremendous sign that the kingdom of God is calling you.

Amen!!!

Satan mainly puts most his attention of destruction towards people of faith with our father. For he would be wasting his time putting much attention towards atheist and or other beliefs. Taking your life up and doing it the fathers way is not a golden path bordered with flowers. It's tough but with every great tribulation comes great reward.

The day of my baptism was a tough one.
Seems I sweated drops of blood
just to accomplish something that,
in retrospect, appeared so easy.
