Choose The Better

Good Morning!! We are at the beginning of a brand new year. This is the time most of us begin to make resolutions: Someone is going to stay on a diet; Somebody is going to start walking or running three miles a day; Someone else is going to study the Bible, and spent time each day with the; and on and on. Then there is cookies, cakes and pie; Somebody reaches out and shuts off the early alarm; Someone has something that just has to be done, right away,...and just can't find the time they thought they'd have. Resolutions broken!

Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made.—Genesis 3:1 (ESV)

But we can ruin our new year if we choose to break one important promise. It is our promise to obey God and make Jesus Lord of our life. Temptation can look beautiful. It’s important for us to learn where God would have us put our priorities. Do we choose to please God?...or do we come first? Will our choices bring us a happy new year?...or will we choose to lose?

A new year, means a new chance for new choices,...better choices.

Holy Spirit, help us to choose to obey our Father's Word,...and heed Your guidance. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

"The prudent see danger and take refuge,...but the simple keep going and pay the penalty."
