Yours is the abundant Life.
You who have decided to follow the Lord, are an adopted Son, and yours is the experience of and the inheritance of Abundant Life.
Are you a Soldier of The Cross? Are you willing and eager to take up The Cross and follow Him? May He do anything with your life, or do you want to reserve the right to cut your own swath?
Each day must begin and end with a bottom line.
The creature of the sea and the animals of the forest do not have choice. They must do as He has designed them. They respond to His direction without question.
You are not like the creatures of the sea or forest. You have choice. In fact, each day presents a grid of choices.
So then, choose according to His Word. After all, there is nothing else.
