Direction of this World

Luke 9:41 Then Jesus answered and said, “O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you?

Jesus wasnt angry when He said this, He was actually giving an honest accessment of men's hearts.  Faithless, or lacking faith is not a path of success.  It is impossible to please God without faith in Him.  It also means unbelief or infidel.  Perverse means to turn from right path, to oppose, distort.  These two words invoke a bold change of direction and an honest assessment of one's heart.  The world systems are summed up in these two words.  
This is the point.  To follow Jesus, religion wont be good enough.  You must lean upon and desire the Spirit's led in your life.  You must exercise faith in the One whom is faithful.  You must choose the path of righteousness.  Narrow is the road that leads to life, and few find it.  If Jesus sums this up about you, be encouraged, because now you have an opportunity to turn from your perverse direction and unbelief and respond & follow Jesus!  I say this even more so to those of us who have known the right path awhile but let these doubts creep in and rule our judgment.  Is Jesus, full of grace & truth, speaking these words to you right now?
