Matthew 7:13-14 NKJV
“Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14 Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
Recently I dreamt that I was looking through some items in the trunk of a car. The owner of the car was trying to sell some things she wanted to get rid of. I saw a pair of shoes and checked the size. I wear a 7M. This shoe was a 7N (narrow) so I put it back. The dream continued and it was full of numbers so I took some time to research the numbers to find out the message of the dream. I almost left out this part of the dream. Later, as I thought about the shoe I realized it did have a message. Shoes represent a path, a journey or a life choice like a career or associations, etc. The shoe was reminding me that the perfect way (represented by the number 7) is not crowded. In order to stay in the right path God has designed for us, sometimes we have to be separated from others who are going the wrong way. The shoe was a 7N. Seven symbolizes perfection and the perfect way is “narrow.” So let us be slow to make decisions based on what everyone else is doing and listen carefully to the Holy Spirit as He leads us in the perfect narrow way.
