Choice. We make it every day, many times a day. It's the authority God gives to us, the free will that has real power and consequences. Yet, it is easy to let this slip, to fall back, to follow when we should counter, to agree when we should ponder, to ignore when we should take notice.No major change in life will come from a life lived to the dictates of easy flow. Major change can only come from someone who regularly exercises choice. The more we confront our own issues, make the hard decisions, step out even when we are not sure, the greater our ability to move forward when life reaches that crucial point and we must do something or die. And I mean, die spiritually, cease to exercise rationally, lose our intuition and discernment. It means knowing when the trials you are suffering are telling you to change instead of accept, especially when such change will bring insecurity and an unknown future.
Each of us has to live by our decisions. So let's make it work toward our growth, let's keep it based on what is important in life, let's never surrender its power over to anyone else.
