Devotional Message:
(Luke 13:24)
"Make every effort to enter through the narrow door, because many, I tell you, will try to enter and will not be able to."

6. Reflect and Repent: Regularly take time to reflect on your life and actions. If you realize you've strayed from the path, don't be discouraged. Repent, ask for
