So a lot has gone on in my life since I last wrote and there are so many things that I could write about. But there have been two big lessons that I have been taught these last few days that I think would be very beneficial to you also.
I have been faced with some choices that were set before for me and there was a good choice and a bad choice. I knew the difference between the good and the bad, but my sinful self desired to do the bad. I was given the way out. I knew that what I wanted to do was not of God but of the devil and yet it's what I desired. Sadly to say I didn't take the way out.
We are faced with these choices everyday. Weather it be going to a party and having the pressure of drinking or not, or falling into the temptation of sex before marriage with that special someone. Even the little things like choosing the piece of fruit over the brownie. We need to be discerning about what is good and what is bad.
In Proverbs 10:13 it says: Wisdom is found on the lips of the discerning, but a rod is for the back of one who has no sense.
In being discerning about making the right choice, we are wise. Wisdom comes from God and so when we make the God pleasing choice, we receive a gift that God also holds. How cool is that?!
When you are faced with a choice between good and bad, figure out the way out of it, or be discerning and follow the right path which is the Lord's.
Blessings to you!
