PULL THE TRIGGER OR NOT!

Like it or love it, this walk begins & ends with choices!
In case you didn’t notice, the first statement spelt out choices… positive choices!
& if you are not interested in gist about choices, you might as well choose to leave this page right now!
Thought so!

That you are reading this is a consequence of a choice you made yesterday…Yep! You could have chosen to commit suicide yesterday, but you resolved to witness the beauties of today… one of which is reading this.

Everyone knows about choices, but how many people really make the choices that are consonant with their cognition, physiology & ultimately spirituality - The Right Choices?

You might not have chosen to be born into a Christian family, but you chose to remain a Christian; you chose to accept the new life; chose to run back to God every time you fell; & chose to talk to a being that you had no physical evidence of his existence; & chose to have faith even when it doesn’t make sense! Some of this choices you made without even realizing you were making them!

Yes, granted, you are facing challenges right now… but it’s a choice to view them as challenges or opportunities - it is said that two men looked out of prison bars and one man saw the starry skies above while the other saw the mud below - their choices led to their perspectives.

From creation, choices have been emphasized… The Invisible God chose to remain thus till his revelation in the second Adam; He chose to drive out the first Adam after he messed up; Noah chose to obey the Invisible God even though evidence proved that it was impossible to rain; Abraham chose to believe in the same invisible God & move to a land “that I will show you” - someone tell me which map has such a land; Jacob chose to remain another seven years just so to marry Joseph’s mum; Joseph chose to flee Potipher’s mistress; & Moses chose to approach the burning bush; David chose to believe Goliath was a dog; & Jesus chose to let the father’s will come through in Gethsemane… Choices!

Did you ever sit to ponder on the consequences of all the choices these entities made? With every choice comes a consequence! You can determine what choices to make, you cannot determine the consequence… what would happen if every choice you made followed the path of least resistance?

A weakness remains a weakness until you choose to say otherwise and alter your perspectives to say what God’s word says about you! God says you can do all things -choose to see His strength in your weaknesses; God says you are righteous - choose not to be condemned because you fell; God says all things are yours - choose to see Him supplying your needs even when there is no dime on you… Choose not to be daunted and pushed into a corner, when you are more than a conqueror!

Josh made a profound statement “Choose this day whom you will follow, as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!” Triple Wow! If you have chosen to serve this Lord of choices, then choose also to believe in His opinion of you, not the world’s, not even yours… Only His!

Remember, if you choose a choice within an array, there are bound to be dissuading anomalies towards the direction of ills… but the savour of the consequences of the chosen will thwack the urge to choose negativities henceforth.

You can control the choices but not the consequences. Ahem...



So choose… Yeah! Pull the trigger and see if a bullet is released or not!
