Choices

We all have to make them. Daily, hourly, minute by minute; once we wake up to the moment we lay our head back down on our pillows we are making choices whether we are aware of it or not. We choose what we will wear, what we will have for breakfast or if we will eat breakfast to who we will talk to that day or who we want to associate ourselves with. What we choose determines a whole lot. God has been presenting me with many choices lately. They are not easy, but truly all I have to say is "yes" or "no." It's as if I am looking at a trail, mapping out which path to take. I see the two paths ahead of me and what they contain. That's what God does - He shows us clearly what each path has in store for us and then we get to choose. The path that He has for us in each point of healing is obviously the one he wants for us. And I am seeing how my "yes" is very important right now. My choice determines how my life can look. There is a path of destruction and there is a path of life. I'm realizing that God is sooooo gracious with me because he lets me sort it out. I get to think through what I'm feeling and then see what I really want. I always end up saying yes, surrendering and seeing how I really don't want destruction. I believe that I have come a long way to be able to make these choices and take these courageous steps. This truly is where the rubber meets the road, crossing boarders and into the house of the Lord I go, one step at a time. One Choice at a time.
