our walk of faith

Our Walk of Faith, God’s Saving Grace -
I was recently impressed with the analogy that our walk of faith through God’s saving grace is like a funnel – wide at the open end and then it gradually becomes narrow as you proceed (walk) through it.
Our walk of faith begins with God’s saving grace – and His grace, like the open end of a funnel, is wide open, inviting and directional. Once we are born again from above (by grace you have been saved through faith) our walk of faith, like traveling through the funnel, follows the narrow way that leads to life. It is the process of being refined through discipleship, sanctified by the Spirit. And even though the way is narrow His grace and His mercy are always sufficient no matter where we find ourselves within that funnel.
Also, the funnel is pointed upward, not downward. God’s grace always points us, draws us and directs us to Him - drawing us ever nearer – and that is the key to our walk – drawing closer to Him…more of Him and less of us.
So, let us walk boldly and confidently through the funnel as we draw ever closer to Him knowing that He is leading and guiding us through the power of His Spirit – and one day we shall be in His presence forever.
