Bible Verse of the Day - March 6, 2023 Monday

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. — Matthew 7:13-14 NIV

Reflection on Verse for Today

Only Christ’s followers were instructed to pass through the narrow gate. Only they received the warning that the path to a shattered life is broad and the gate is wide. They were only warned of the repercussions of choosing the wrong gate, which include destruction, a meaningless life, and a squandered life where Christ is not the center and God is not exalted.

God is loyal to His eternal promises to everyone who are saved by grace through faith in Him, and none will ever lose their eternal salvation, regardless of the gate a Christian chooses to enter. Nevertheless, the one who decides to live for themselves is the one who steps onto the road to ruin, forfeiting the chance to die to themselves and live for Christ. As they will have led an unproductive life and lost their recompense, they will be saved for all eternity, but as though by fire. As we work to nail our own egos to the cross and exalt Christ in our bodies to His credit and glory, let us try to enter in through the narrow gate and live a victorious and abundant life here on earth.

My Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for saving me by grace through Christ and preserving for me an eternal inheritance in paradise. I ask that I may daily put to death everything that is self-centered and live each day for Christ. Help me to decide to walk through the narrow door of devoted, disciplined Christian, which opens to a prosperous life on earth. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
