LIFE IS FULL OF CHOICES
Life is full of so many choices. Which career to follow, which house to buy, which offer to accept, which business deal to take, who to marry. Each day many choices confront us and cross our paths. It calls for courage. We are once again living in one of those seasons where we need to make choices.
CHOICES DICTATE OUR FUTURES
Each choice has an effect. Example: If we decide to marry, this can affect the direction of our lives for a long period of time. Some people rush in and make choices without much thought. Other people hold back and never end up making a choice. Others regret not having made certain choices. Have you ever heard someone say, ‘Oh, I should have done that’ or ‘I am glad I did that?’
OFTEN CHOICES CARRY COSTS
Choices carry risks and marriage is a good example of this. Many times, our choices cost us something.
Joshua 24:21-23 The people answered, we choose the Lord! You have heard yourselves say it, Joshua said. You have chosen to obey the Lord. Yes, they replied, we are witnesses. All right, he said, then you must destroy all the idols you now own, and you must obey the Lord God of Israel.
The people of Israel’s obedience called for action. They had to destroy those things that had been their priority.
