It seems that the church here in U-S-America is always looking for the easy way to success. There are a lot of short cuts we can take, but they will only lead us to failure. Oh sure, we may have some small success but it doesn't last and we soon find ourselves looking for another easy way up.
I'm reminded of a passage in Scripture that illustrates the Christian life as a narrow road and how so many miss the narrow for the wider one. However, the wider one leads to destruction and the narrow road, though at times more of a challenge, brings success. Remember Robert Frost, "
Two roads diverged in a wood
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference
And I took the one less traveled by
And that has made all the difference
