Will you choose life?

Life is a series of choices we make every day. Hour by hour, minute by minute, all these choices have consequences which will directly affect us and those around us for our good, or to our detriment. While everything in life is not laid out in black and white choices, there are many decisions we can make that give us direction and purpose. By the power of God living in us if we don’t purposely make these good choices by default, the opposite happens. 

The first story after creation in Genesis is about a choice. Eve, without Adam’s leadership, chose to take fruit from a tree that gave her the "knowledge" to decide what was right or wrong. Instead of allowing God that ultimate, wise place of authority, she chose to redefine truth on her own terms. Since that time we have all been faced with the same choice. Will we fall victim to the enemy’s lies that we can do life better on our own? Or will we choose to believe that God has a better way? 

God’s word, Truth, teaches us there is a better way. The right way. His way. This choice is the path of abundant life, full of grace and mercy.  

There are two forces at work in this world, each with a plan to capture your heart and devotion. Good and evil, God and satan, life and death.  

By God’s power, will you fight against your natural tendencies or will you let your human nature win? It's your choice. God's desire is that you will choose His way.

Choose life, or death will choose you.
