Matthew 7:14
“For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”
A heavy reminder that in a scruffy little city where church going may be the norm, those who find life are still few. Hell is real. Let’s strive to love those around us with eternity in mind!

Reflection on how sometimes I need to get certain thinking out of my head. Examples include cynicism, feeling sorry for myself, wanting to quit. Employ the “SSTT” strategy. (IYKYK :laughing:)
