June 17 - Headlights

Imagine driving late at night. You have two choices. One road which is much like the interstate and one which is like a country backroad. However, on the interstate, no one is allowed to turn on their headlights, but on the backroad, you can use your headlights as you please. Which road do you choose to drive on?

If you are like most people, you chose to drive with your lights on.

This is a simple illustration of Christian living. As Christians, we are called to walk the more narrow path (because broad is the path that leads to destruction). If we live by the world we choose to do things in worldly fashion.

At the same time, we are called to live a life in light, not darkness. The smart choice would be to embed Christ into our lives and follow the path that he has made for us. Christ is the Light. Christianity is the narrow path that leads to life.

The path may be more difficult to maneuver, but at least you've got the best Light in the world.
