Have you ever walked along the west side of a river, or lake, or the ocean, and 
watched the moon rise? I have often, in Kenya, at Malindi on the Indian Ocean 
coast. Between where you stand and the moon is a shimmering path of light. Then 
if you walk along the beach, that path of light moves with you, so that always 
from whatever spot where you stand there is a path of light leading direct to 
the moon.

Not one person who reads this is sinless; all of us have fallen. But His 
business is receiving sinners. Our job is to believe it. And that believing is 
for sure the most difficult task we have; we have all been born and nurtured in 
unbelief. Israel could not enter the Promised Land because of unbelief. Nothing 
but unbelief will keep any soul out of heaven at last (read Heb. 3:7-19, and 
6:1-6, etc.). And Jesus says the same thing in John 3:14-19. This is why we are 
always to pray the prayer of that distraught father, "Lord, I believe; help 
Thou my unbelief" (Mark 9:23, 24).

You don't want to be proud and arrogant, for that is the lethal sin of "the 
angel of the church of the Laodiceans" (Rev. 3:14-17). Come to Jesus but 
remember there is no path that leads to Him but repentance and humbleness of 
heart. Two heavenly commodities not seen much in society or even the church, 
but available in Heaven's Supermarket, and they are yours for free for the 
receiving.
