A
reminder for today
Later
on, in the third year of the drought, the LORD said to Elijah, "Go and
present yourself to King Ahab. Tell him that I will soon send rain!" (1
Kings 18:1)
Choices part 1. I want to chat to you about choices
today. You might think: “Ah seriously! I know I have made good or bad choices,
but I am past that and looking forward.” I know, and yes I like to remind you that
you have to listen to God, so why are we looking at choices?
We both know that every choice has an impact and every
decision we make either puts us on the right path or takes us on a detour, but
ultimately every choice we have puts us in a place where we must choose.
I think every choice in life has three stages. Part 1:
Getting the choice, Part 2: making the Choice and Part 3 living the choice. Today
I want to focus your attention on getting a choice. I think or rather I believe
that all things happen with a purpose. It either shapes or moulds us for bigger
ones or it places us in a position where God can use us or were God will let us
grow in our relationship with Him.
Now, every day you stand before many choices. Some you
say are daily choices and part of life, but in the free world that is true. You
have a choice to wake up, a choice to have breakfast and when to have it and a
choice to work. In a jail cell you do not have those choices, and yes I know
choices took those guys to jail and choices kept you from it. But still it is a
choice. So here is my point for today. Take a moment before you make your
choices today and see God in them. Take a moment and think for a second if you
can see God’s hand and God’s direction and finally hear God’s voice in each
choice. Some choices will purely be out of grace, but other could be part of
your work or because of the position you have or even the road you took. But in
each case take a moment and look for God, because He is in each choice whether
it is by grace or by reason and purpose.
So I will meet you out there today as we evaluate our
choices.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
