There is a poster that reads: "You are not born a winner, You are not born a loser, You are born a chooser.
This is a great reminder for everyone. Life is full of choices. Every day brings new challenges and decisions for you and me and everyone around us. Every day is a new day, and every day means we either choose to live for God, by the standards He lays down in the Holy Bible, or we live for ourselves by our own standards of right and wrong, as in the days when, ". . . every man did that which was right in his own eyes" (Judges 21:25).
We are free to make choices and we have to live with the consequences of those choices. Whether it is the career we select or the mate we choose or what we order from a menu. We experience the consequences of our choices.
Too many people today want to have a foot on each side of the fence. They want the path to heaven but want it to wander through the streets of the world.
Jesus said: "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. " (Matthew 6:24).
So remember that the choices are yours and may we all decide that we, and our house, will serve the LORD. Think about it. It's your choice!

~Lord, give me a true desire to faithfully serve You wholeheartedly and to
encourage my family as well. Amen.
