Choose what is right
. . . Don’t you just wish that every decision would be the right one? We make choices
every day. Sometimes we choose without any conscious awareness.

Many of those
decisions are benign . . . we could have decided another way and it wouldn’t
make a huge difference in our lives. But some are extremely important to the
focus of our lives. It is that level of choice that I want to influence.

A particular choice,
with its inherent ramifications, is not what concerns me. The essential element
of choosing is already present in me. So what is the issue? Will I choose
wisely or foolishly? Is my life focus toward God and wisdom or toward fleshly, satanic
foolishness?

If we have made
foolish choices in the past, we can still change our minds, change our choices
and choose wisely. That is the grace of repentance . . . changing our life
choices from foolishness to wisdom.

Changing one’s mind
(choices) is not the private sphere of women. Men can also choose what is right
and good, even after bad choices.
