The Narrow Path

<p>The Narrow Path is about forgiveness. It is easy to say that you forgive someone but since it is almost impossible to forget when you are offended true forgiveness is extremely difficult to release. Scripture says you should forgive someone who wronged you seventy times seven times. Jesus is not saying to forgive 490 times; he's talking about forgiving in the most extreme situations-for example the 430 years of the Israelites' captivity in Egypt. The Narrow Path explores a situation when two men meet along a path (one is a murderer the other the victim) in a place where time has no meaning. </p><p></p><p>Jesus forgave even the people who crucified him (Luke 23:34) but we sometimes cannot forgive even the slightest wrong against us. We must remember that the path to heaven is very narrow so if you have an unforgiving and bitter heart you cannot receive the kingdom of heaven. Can you love your enemy enough to forgive him? Overcoming an unforgiving heart cannot be done without the Holy Spirit because he provides the fruit: love peace joy patience gentleness goodness faithfulness kindness and self-control. The Narrow Path tells the story of a case of forgiving a difficult wrong and repenting and how God forgives us as well.</p>
