Narrow Truth

Contrary to the spirit of the age,
Truth is not wide.
The gate is narrow that
Leads to life.

Truth is powerful
Because of its narrowness.
What appears to be restrictive
Is powerfully freeing.

Who wants a GPS that says,
“Turn any direction you want”?

Vague instructions get you lost.
It’s the specific, the accurate,
The “not that way, but this way” voice
That helps, that heals, that restores.

May the truth, Jesus Himself,
Set you free.
