Choices
We make choices constantly.
They are our choices and we must own them.
The process of learning to make good decisions is the heart of growth.
Your very being is determined by your choices.
For all of us who have not been afflicted by some ill fortune of disease or
accident, our choices usually determine our successes in life. Each new day
presents added challenges, opportunities, and possibilities. It is up to us what
selections we choose. It is up to us how intelligently we make our choices. I
might also add, a decision not to act is as much of a choice as a deliberate
decision to act.
They are our choices and we must own them.
We choose our actions or our inactions, our beliefs and our non-beliefs, just
as we choose the clothes we wear or the books we read. In the compilation of
life’s choices, there is an abundance of experiences to draw meaning from.
Through time, our actions and beliefs move us in the direction we choose to go.
Hopefully, growth occurs from consistently making the right choices and learning
from the wrong choices.
As we grow, life gives us new and exciting challenges to choose. If we fail,
life will continue to give us more opportunities to achieve or fail. So, ask
yourself the right questions as you ponder your choices and you will choose the
correct answers. As you go through life, you’ll find that your choices have a
definitive impact upon you, so you will need to make them carefully.
Ask for God’s guidance and care along the way. Have the faith to trust Him
with your choices. Seek His wisdom and have courage to persevere when the
pathway is hard. But, always remember, only you have the freedom and the
responsibility to determine your station in life.
