The Two Lines

There are a few writings at the end of the book that are not in the form of a letter. One of these being The Two Lines. One day I had the thought of the story for The Two Lines, as if the Holy Spirit gave it to me, like a download. So, I went and typed it out. It is my favorite for a few reasons. It explains so much about this life and the life of those pleading for people to be reconciled to God. How the world is deceptive and tries to keep the truth hidden. How the world is the broad path. How people without the Truth can be so angry, can mock, and have no idea where the path they are on, leads. How Jesus is life. I love that the sound of the bird appears again after the character chooses the narrow path. I also love the name of the ships and think they are the perfect descriptions.

For a while, I would try to identify with the character standing in line, who is trying to figure out the path they are on and figure out the people who on the other path. Then one day I realized I was one of the characters on the other side, trying to tell people that Jesus is life and He can save them. The fact is, that all of us that are employed by Father, we are those people trying to tell others that the time is near and that Jesus is the Way.

Even after reading this writing the many many times I have, sometimes it will still make me tear up. I think it is because it helps remind me and helps me see clearly what He did for us.

Titus 2:11-14 NASB – For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

Until next time,
