Choose wisely

Regardless of whether or not you’re satisfied with your daily routine, you always have the choice to adjust it.  Sometimes it’s almost impossible to decipher the right choice from the wrong one.  Good could be cloaked behind bad, or bad behind good.  Once the decision has been made, the moment is gone.  That decision will alter your path in one way or another.  The repercussions to some choices may ripple throughout the remainder of your life, while others may be easily altered.  The level of severity you’re dealing with is not always obvious.  

While not foolproof, peering deeper into the hazy fog of tomorrow is probably your best path. Ask yourself: “Where does this path lead?”  There really is a certain degree of irony in one’s liberty to choose.  Having “the choice” is freedom, but you can easily become a slave to the decisions you make.

That's why God wants you to make the right choice. It's not always easy to do, but sometimes you just have to go with your heart and listen to the voice of God. He can and will help you choose wisely.
