A WAY....WHICH ONE ARE YOU CHOOSING?

There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death Prov. 16:25 ( & 14:12)

 6 Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life." John 14:6

Every last one of us are on a journey....and that journey is called life.   From deciding who are friends will be, to where we want to live, to what schools will we have our kids enrolled into, all they up to who I'm going to marry, and prayerfully spend my last days with.


With thousands of choices to make daily, how does one make not just good choices, but GOD choices without GOD?  Simply put you can't.   In order to make GOD-like, or choices that please GOD, one must be walking in relationship with Him daily.   Your day has to more than start and end with Him, there has to be intentional steps to include Him with you during your decision making during the day.   Which is why in Col. 3:23 Paul reminds us to do EVERYTHING as if we are doing to for GOD Himself.

So as I'm preparing for the message for this Sunday it dawned on me as we live in this post modern culture where tolerance is not enough......NO...they WANT APPROVAL.  They want us to say we are willing to allow THAT* in our lives, into our very hearts.  So the question is......the WAY in which you are going/heading does it lead to ETERNAL LIFE or DEATH?  Solmon said there is a way, a method that a man chooses that he thinks is the right way, and it's utterly wrong, while Jesus said HE IS THE WAY.  So are you choosing a way, or His way?   Simply put this comes down to a LIFE or DEATH ISSUE.  Jesus was tolerant.....but there were things He didn't approve of, and we should be no different.   See you Sunday for THYATIRA, meanwhile LGLP (in case you didn't know LOVE GOD, LOVE PEOPLE) !!

* denotes - anything that you have had a standard against, that now you are willing to concede the truth for and allow into your heart, and eventually you become totally passive towards.
