The Choices We Make

0

The choices we make in life can make us or break us. The decisions we make not only affect our lives and destinies, but also the ones who are near and dear to us! This is clearly seen in the life of Moses. Remember, Moses was raised in the household of Pharaoh and was cared for and trained by his mother concerning God’s directives. He lived the first forty years in the lap of luxury. He was even considered a prince of Egypt. But in spite of his privileged upbringing, Moses knew he was different from the Egyptians. All that he had learned about God at his mother’s knee confirmed that he was a Hebrew. At that point he came to a crossroad in his life. That is when Moses made the choice to identify with God and His people and that was the beginning of his walk with eternity.

Stay safe and blessed!

It will be here before you know it… Spring! The smell of spring, flowers blooming, trees budding and of course fresh cut grass. I love it! It also welcomes in the season of yard work and in some cases, there are pitfalls to avoid. Last year as the lawn-mowing season went into full swing I was accosted by that mean green nuisance poison ivy! Could have been from pulling weeds, or maybe trimming the front parking area. It really doesn’t matter, what matters is…I GOT IT! It started out little, almost unnoticeable on my hands. Then to my arms, shoulder and even my face! But you know, as I look back over my being reunited with this little practical joke mother nature has cooked up, I see a stark compassion to life. Poison ivy, like the flu, doesn’t stand out when you view the landscape but its hidden potential is there nonetheless. In comparison, as you view the landscape of life there are things that appear harmless, but just the least bit of contact can cause great discomfort.
