Jesus uses the metaphor of the narrow door as the way to life. While this may seem as though it makes things more difficult and demands more of us, it’s possible there is another way of seeing this. If one is to make it through a narrow door, it suggests we cannot carry much through it at all. We will need to lay things down and let other things go if we have any hope of making it through. Perhaps this is the subtle invitation Jesus offers to those who wish to follow him. God does not need or want our talents, our accomplishments and all the things we have done “for him.” God only wants us. Maybe this is what the nonreligious have insight into in a way religious people don’t: they come as they are without anything. Perhaps that’s why they make it through the door.
