Few There Be

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leads to life, and few there be that find it. (Matthew 7:14)

If this statement is true in its traditional sense, it will not be because some subset of Christianity found the correct formula, but rather because in the gathered masses, only a few truly got it.  Lord, please help me to get it.  To get you.  To be a Christian in word and deed.
