This is how your future will be ...

I know how it's going to turn out.  Everthing Christ wants to do in and through you will be done -  PERIOD!!!

- Adapted from Philippians 1:10-21MSG

Friends, you can't change your future - what God wants from, for, and through you, will eventurally be done - like it or not.  Therefore, stop fighting, stay in faith, and live for right now.  The future isn't yours yet, and time spent trying to figure out what will happen and what you want to happen will only waste your precious time of living in the right and the now.

It's all about choices

“Everything is permissible for me – but not everything is beneficial.  Everything is ‘permissible for me’ – but I will not be mastered by anything.”  1 Cor. 6:12 (NIV 1984)

It is all about choices!  We all have them to make, however, we all often to not make them for the right reasons.  Our choices, whether it is faith, food, fun, health, family, work, finances, etc., need to be made with these two questions in mind:  ‘Do I have peace about this?’ And, ‘Would God approve?’.  If both questions are answered with a no, then some deep, powerful prayer is definitely necessary; if answered with a yes, then the choice should be pretty easy for you to make.

To believe or not believe

“… If God is the real God, follow him; if it’s Baal, follow him.  Make up your minds.  1 Kings 18:21, MSG

Either you believe in God or you don’t – there can be no middle ground.  Therefore, those of you that are unsure of what, or who to believe, need to make up your minds.  Why?  Because being sure of what, and who, you believe gives you something to believe in – giving you a future to press on toward.  However, being unsure is like a double edged sword – although you try staying in the middle, eventually it will catch up to you and you will be stabbed by one of the edges, leaving you with no future at all.

Be bold enough to decide right now.

"If you decide that it's a bad thing to worship God, then choose a god you'd rather serve - and do it today... As for me and my family, we'll worship God."  Joshua 24:15, The MSG

Either you are in or you are out in worshiping God.  So, be bold enough to decide who you want to worship: the world, some other god, or the one and only - God... and be bold enough to decide right now.
