WHEN YOU HAVE TO MAKE TOUGH CHOICES
Posted on September 12, 2023 by atimetoshare.me
Proverbs 16:9 ESV “The heart of man plans his way, but the Lord establishes his steps.”
Whether you’re a child, teen, adult or aging person, you will have to make difficult choices in this life. There will be many along the way. When you’re growing up, you decide to take a chance which might prove dangerous. When you reach your teens, you imagine that you are invincible and nothing can harm you, so you might make foolish decisions that lead you down another difficult road. When you reach your adult years, you are supposedly at your prime. You make bigger choices that will affect you and those around you. You choose a mate. You find your career. You discover new avenues to take. You buy a house, you have a family, you plan for your retirement. When you reach your senior years, you find that many of the choices you made up until now, haven’t really gotten you where you thought you’d be. You are now faced with life and death choices. When your years come to an end and you take your final breath, will you have made the important choice to follow Jesus?
Each of the choices we make in our journey, will be much easier if we put our faith in Him. When you pray before making a decision and have peace with it, chances are you are making the right choice. Placing your trust in the Creator of the universe is really a no brainer. He has already planned your life for you. He knew you before you were formed in your mother’s body. He determined the length of your days. He is with you through every situation. He will never leave you. He loves you with an unconditional love that you can’t begin to understand. He always keeps His promises. He would die for you. If you haven’t heard, He was willing to shed His own blood for you. He has a place waiting for you in heaven, where you will never feel pain – never be afraid – never be in a dangerous situation – never shed a tear. He’s waiting for you to find Him. He will be revealed to you in the pages of His inspired Word, the Bible. Open one today. Not only will you gain eternal life, but your choices here on earth will be much easier.
