We All Face Forks in the Road...

January 28 2006

Hey guys! Wow...what a week..I got through it and boy am I glad!


So I was thinking a lot today about choices we make...we have some small choices and some big...some could ruin everything you've worked for and some could be as small as whether or not to tie your shoes. I dont know but I was thinking and it occured to me that while a decision you have to make may seem small to you, in the long run it may not really be that small. As a Christian it is so important to keep your testimony and to make the right choices so that nobody will look at you and say..."hmm she must just be like all the rest of the people." I mean, as Christians we should please God and praise Him in all we do. The choice you make to go to that party or just say "yes" to that one guy could not only make you feel guilty but could ruin your testimony. That is so huge...I dont know..Ive just thought about my friends today and some of them have just gone down the wrong path...gotten into things that they dont need to be in...and that brings tears to my eyes. Some of the people I thought would never start drinking or partying started to and I just cant figure out what happened. Sorry...soap box...Ive just been disappointed today which led me to a lot of thinking...just be wise in each choice you make...it could effect everything in your life...especially your testimony.


I hope all of you have had a great week. God bless.

"Join with others in following my example, brothers, and take note of those who live according to the pattern we gave you. For, as I have often told you before and now say again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is on earthly things. But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body." -Philippians 3:17-21



I love these guys!
