“For the gate is narrow and the way is constricted that leads to life…”
— Matthew 7:13–14 NASB1995
🚧 Preparing Our Children for the Narrow Path
As mothers guiding older children, we are equipping them for a lifetime of choices. Jesus calls His followers to a constricted, narrow path—a way that isn’t always easy or popular, but one that leads to life.
In a world of options, we help them discern the road that honors Christ. We model perseverance, not popularity. Conviction, not convenience.
🗣 Family Conversation:
- What does the narrow way look like in our home decisions?
- How can we support each other when walking it feels lonely?
👣 Kingdom Practice:
Share examples from your life when the narrow way was hard—but right. Ask your children what narrow choices they’re facing.
🙏 Prayer:
Lord, help our family walk the road that leads to life. May we not fear being few, as long as we walk with You. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
