~ Your Rationale for Choosing ~
It Is the Best Value of All Journeys
~ “Everyone
who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and
eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price. Why do
you spend money for what is not bread, and your wages for what does not
satisfy? Listen carefully to Me, and eat
what is good, and let your soul delight itself in abundance” (Isaiah 55:1-2).
It Is a Delightful Journey
~ “Her
[the way of true wisdom] ways are ways of pleasantness,
and all her
paths are peace. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her,
and happy are
all who retain her” (Proverbs 3:17-18).
You Avoid the Crowds
~ Jesus said, “Enter by the narrow gate;
for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction,
and there are many who go in by it.
Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and
there are few who find it” (Matthew 7:13-14).
There Are No Accidents On This Journey
~ “For
He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest
you dash your foot against a stone. You
shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you
shall trample underfoot” (Psalm 91:11-13).
It Is A Great Environment
~ Jesus said, “But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by heaven,
for it is God’s throne; nor by the earth, for it is His footstool; nor by
Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, because you
cannot make one hair white or black. But
let your ‘Yes’ be ‘Yes,’ and your ‘No,’ ‘No.’
For whatever is more than these is from the evil one” (Matthew
5:34-37).
