Hey John,
I listened to a Meeting CD this past Sunday. I grabbed one at random in my garage when I was leaving. The title was“Your choices determine your future.” I felt as though it was going to be good. It was! Here are some things that really touched me that you preached in that meeting:
“We are right now the result of the decisions we have made.”
“After Adam made his decision, after the deed was done, he had no more choice. You’re going to reap what you sow, whether you want the results of your choices or not. Our choices determine our future. Adam lost his happy life; he ate sorrow the rest of his life. But there was nothing he could do about it. He had no more input. God’s judgment had come; the decision was made. Our part is to act; God’s part is to determine the result.”
Then, in your sermon, you asked a question, John. You asked, “Do you have any good thing in your life that you want to keep?” Do you really want to keep your blessings? The key is to live as if you want to keep them. You have to have thankfulness for what God has giving you: health, wealth, people in your life, etc. Treat those people like you value them because things can change, and will change.”
“Don’t play around with your blessings. You may wake up one day and they could be gone, and there’s no more getting them back. Value them!”
“It’s your choice. But after you make the choice, then what? You have no say-so, no input into deciding the results.”
This was just the first 4 tracks of the Cd. It made me consider the times, today. God is so good! Let’s choose God first.
Thanks,
Paul
