Being a true Christian is really never easy. I have observed throughout my life believers going on into deeper walks with Christ and there was cost. As they started spending more time in prayer, reading the word and meditating, the believers around them did not like it.
I have seen intense opposition against those believers who went into the deeper life in Christ from people they "used to go into the house of God in company. "
People who choose this path find it is a vigorous path that demands them to go alone in. A path that has pain in it, yet great inexpressible joy. There always seems to be a fierce fight between evil forces, and even well meaning people trying to get them to "come back to their senses."
But all of these hard oppositions, spiritual attacks, rejections and losses only serve to strengthen that believer to go to even greater depths in Christ. Never stop going deeper with Christ.
Those that have chosen that very narrow path already know they can and never will return to what they left behind. They only want to go up the mountain higher and higher with Christ and they have decisively made up their minds.
Their faces shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father and His Son, for they are always facing Heavenward..
“I have one desire now - to live a life of reckless abandon for the Lord, putting all my energy and strength into it.”
― Elisabeth Elliot, Through Gates of Splendor
