In this life we are surrounded by choices, whether we are conscious of them or not we are constantly making them. Some of these are simple and have little impact and others are more complex and could become a turning point in our lives. From what we’ll wear, to what we’ll eat…from which route to take, to whom our friends should be…from what we should study to what car we should buy…from what job offer we should accept to who we should marry…from where we should live or what church we should attend…and the list goes on. The main point today is simply to remind all of us that above all the choices we have to make in this life, the first one and most important one should always be, having a relationship with God. Choosing God every day in our decision making will give us the best outcome we could have ever ask for or ever imagined and keeping him first place in our lives will help us live a happy, peaceful, successful, and fruitful life. Choosing God is literally a matter of life or death and it doesn’t just affect our present and future but even what will happen to us after death!! What will you choose today?

Deuteronomy 30:19-20 “Today I am giving you a choice of two ways. And I ask heaven and earth to be witnesses of your choice. You can choose life or death. The first choice will bring a blessing. The other choice will bring a curse. So choose life! Then you and your children will live. You must love the Lord your God and obey him. Never leave him, because he is your life. And he will give you a long life in the land that he, the Lord, promised to give to your ancestors—Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.”
