---WE HAVE A CHOICE~~

--In so many areas of life we have no choice. “It’s not fair,” we say. But the scales of life were forever tipped on the side of fairness when God planted a tree in the Garden of Eden. All complaints were silenced when Adam and his descendants were given 'free will', the freedom to make whatever eternal choice we desire.

Any injustice in this life is offset by the honor of choosing our destiny in the next. Wouldn’t you agree? It would have been nice if God had let us order life like we order a meal. It would’ve been nice, but it didn’t happen. When it came to many details of your life on earth, you weren’t given a choice, a voice, or a vote. But when it comes to life after death, you were! In my book that seems like a good deal. Wouldn’t you agree?

[The Lord Jesus does not force himself on anyone. He invites us, He sends the Holy Spirit to convict us of our sins and need of a Savior, and He saves us by His 'GRACE'. BUT He always leaves that choice up to each person. Who do you choose? There are only two choices, Heaven or Hell. "Choose this day whom you will serve as for me and my house we will serve the Lord." -(Joshua 24:15)
"We are saved by grace through faith; and that not of ourselves, it is a gift of God, not of works lest any man should boast."--(Ephesians 2:8-9)~~
Jesus died to set us free from sin. He paid our sin debt on that Cross. He took all the sins of the entire world and nailed them, through His own body (blood), to that Cross. Now He gives us the choice to choose who we will follow, the god of this world, Satan, or the Savior of the world, Jesus Christ. Please choose Jesus. "We love Him because He first loved us."
"For God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him."
"He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." --(John 3:36). CHOOSE JESUS!

Please do not wait, tomorrow may be too late. Most all Prophecy has been fulfilled, soon Jesus will return to gather His Church (people/believers) to live eternally with Him and all believers. "For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels." --(MARK 8:38)]

---NEW LIFE ~~

-"If anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!
--(2 Corinthians 5:17)
-----
Four years ago I moved to a newly developed subdivision. In front of each house was a maple tree. I noticed that the tree in front of my house was infested with insects. One day during a windstorm, the tree broke at the damaged spot. I cleaned up the branches and cut the remaining trunk to the ground.

A few weeks later I noticed a green shoot coming from the stump. Before Fall had arrived, the shoot was more than three feet tall. Today the tree has beautifully formed branches and is at least 18 feet tall!-

At times our lives may seem broken beyond repair. Troubles may leave us devastated and hopeless. But we have a God who loves us unconditionally, through our brokenness. God's grace can remove the debris in our lives and help us grow into something even better than before. It may take time but we can trust that God will help us transform our lives into something strong and beautiful if we trust Him to lead, guide and direct our steps.

Jesus said, "I will never leave you nor forsake you. You are Mine. I have your name engraved on the palm of My nail-pierced hand. I will never let go of your hand."

---TRUE HOPE~~

-"The Spirit himself
testifies with out
spirit that we are
God's children."
--(Romans 8:16)--

--Sometimes life's disappointments seem so overwhelming. The job we hoped for doesn't materialize; friends we counted on let us down; the romantic relationship we longed for fails to work out. But into these heartbreaks, God's Word speaks a refreshing truth about our hope in Him. The apostle Paul wrote, "Suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character, and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame [or disappoint us], because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been give to us" (ROMANS 5:3-5].

As we place our trust in Him, through His Spirit, God whispers the truth that we are unconditionally loved and will one day be with Him--regardless of the obstacles we face. In a world that may often disappoint us, how good it is to know that GOD, the Creator of the Universe, gives us genuine hope. This old world will let you down. Friends may let you down, but JESUS will never let you. "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." (HEBREWS 13:8)-

-"Abba, Father, thank You that I can always trust in Your perfect never-ending love. Help me to be a light for You, shining in the world full of sin. 'Even so, Come, Lord Jesus.'" ~~

---DUMB SHEEP, GOOD SHEPHERD~~

--"As a shepherd looks after
his scattered flock when he
is with them, so will I look
after my sheep."
--(Ezekiel 34:12)--

--MY FRIEND CHAD spent a year as a shepherd in Wyoming. "Sheep are so dumb that they'll only eat what is right in front of them," he told me. "Even if they've eaten all the grass in front of them, they won't turn to look for a fresh patch--they'll just start eating dirt!"

We laughed, and I couldn't help but think about how often the Bible compares humans to sheep. No wonder we need a shepherd! We need 'The Shepherd, Jesus Christ.' But since sheep are so dumb, not just any shepherd will do. Sheep need a shepherd who cares about them. When the prophet Ezekiel wrote to God's people in exile, captives in Babylon, he compared them to sheep led by bad shepherds. Instead of caring for the flock, Israel's leaders had exploited them, profiting from them and then leaving them for the wild animals to devour (V. 5).

But they were not without hope. God, the Good Shepherd, promised to rescue them from the leaders who exploited them. He promised to bring them home, put them in lush pastures, and give them rest. He would heal the injured and go after the lost (VV. 11-16). He would banish wild animals, so that His flock would be safe.

-Members of God's flock are in need of tender care and direction. How blessed we are to have a Shepherd who is always leading us to green pastures!

---More Than We Deserve ~~

--"For we do not present
our pleas before You
because of our righteousness,
but because of Your great
mercy."
--(Daniel 9:18)--

--Sometimes, we pray, "Lord, if only I change such-and-such in my life, will You do this for me?" Other times, we look at our sin-filled lives and know that, no matter what we do, we don't deserve to ask God for anything. Either way, we understand that, as we are, we are not worthy to ask what we desire from God. Our God is perfectly holy, and we have sinned against Him.

Daniel understood this too. God's people had acted wickedly, and they deserved His judgment. Yet Daniel cried out, appealing to God not because His people could make up for what they had done, but because Daniel knew that his Lord was full of mercy. Daniel had faith not in what God's people could do, but in who G-D is.

"The LORD is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love" (Psalm 145:8). He longs to forgive us and draw us close to Him. Knowing that we could never earn this ourselves. He came down from Heaven to earn it for us. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus made us righteous and gave us more than we could ever deserve--life eternal with Him. We can in confidence turn to Him in prayer, trusting in His great mercy.

--"O LORD, according to Your steadfast love remember me. Forgive me when I stumble and fall. You alone are worthy of all praise, honor, and glory. Blessed be the Name of Yeshua, the great "I AM".
