You Choose.

You are not alone in your life. God is there. Get to know Him and what He is saying.

Deuteronomy chapter 30 verse 20.

Choose to love the Lord your God and to obey Him and to cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days.

Life without God is done your way. The way you think it should go. You take each situation and make the best decision you can, hoping that what you have decided is the right move, so that you can be at peace. Then you are ready to face the next situation that comes along. We have even taught ourselves to multi-task. We can handle several situations at once, always focused and regimented. 

   Look at children, they can have the television on, while being creative and answer you at the same time. We have learned to challenge children at an early age, to see what their learning capabilities are. Then we pick and choose a path that we think might be good for them. Or we just observe our children and say things like; "O look at what they just did or the words that they just spoke. How cleaver they are."

   It's too bad that we cannot stay young forever but that is not how life is designed. Do you remember how big things seemed? How tall your parents were and how inquisitive you were at the things they did? It wasn't until you were older that you were held accountable for your actions and had to face responsibilities. You had to get a job and pay your bills. If you did not then you must have faced rough times or a lot of hassle from others.

   We cannot stop aging and we cannot stop being dependent on others. The world is designed in such a away that opportunities are given to those who seek them. That way young fresh minds are learning and developing what their elders have put in place. Maybe you are following in your families footsteps, maybe you have taken a job with a cooperation or maybe you have decided to learn a trade. Life adds challenges!

   In the past people would gather on Sundays and give thanks to God for their jobs and the good health they have. Is it important to you? Have you figured out who to give thanks or blame to? The days are going by, are you happy or bitter? 

   The reason people give thanks to God is because there is no other explanation. The bible tells us of God as the Creator and Jesus as our Savior. It has been tested and debated over and over again. Maybe your way of doing things works for you, but that does not change the fact of who God is. He is a choice you have. His promises are to give you a life of happiness and peace.

   Thank You Father for Jesus. It's crazy thinking, I would not have looked towards You before, but I had a thought about You and You showed me what I was missing. Thank you. 😊 

2 Timothy chapter 1 verses 13 and 14.

Paul said; "Hold tightly to the pattern of truth I taught you, especially concerning the faith and love Christ Jesus offers you. Guard well the splendid, God-given ability you received as a gift from the Holy Spirit who lives within you."

Genesis chapter 8 verses 21 and 22.

And Jehovah was pleased with the sacrifice and said to Himself, "I will never do it again---I will never again curse the earth, destroying all living things, even though man's bent is always toward evil from his earliest youth, and even though he does such wicked things. As long as the earth remains, there will be springtime and harvest, cold and heat, winter and summer, day and night." 

          

Ephesians chapter 6 verse 13.

So use every piece of God's armor to resist the enemy whenever he attacks, and when it is all over you will still be standing up. 

2 Timothy chapter 3 verses 16 and 17. 

The whole bible was given to us by inspiration from God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives; it straightens us out and helps us do right. It is God's way of

making us well prepared at every point, fully equipped to do good to everyone.
