Real talk about CHOICE for a minute…
We will spend 2 hours picking out an outfit.
We’ll walk every aisle in Target or TJMaxx looking for the PERFECT gift.
Ladies, ya all know I walk the Lords store (Hobby Lobby) for hours if my babe isnt with me
We will research skin care like we’re preparing a doctoral thesis. The right skin care is new for me. I was a soap & water girl but now I am at Ulta all confused.
Is it hydrating?
Does it reduce fine lines?
What are the reviews?
What’s the ingredient list?
I usually just asking my daughter for the answer lol
But somehow… some of us make QUICK, rash decisions when it comes to the person we connect our heart, spirit, mind, & future to.
Choice matters.
Why?
Because choices build lives.
God talks about choice all throughout His Word. He gave us free will because love & covenant were always meant to be intentional, not accidental.
I have set before you life and death, blessing & cursing: therefore choose life… Deut. 30:19
And can we talk about equally yoked for a second? God wasn’t trying to ruin anyone’s fun. He was protecting purpose, peace, & partnership.
“he prudent give thought to their steps. Proverbs 14:15
Ummm... that’ll preach a little.
Choosing a person is deeper than chemistry.
It’s deeper than butterflies.
It’s deeper than “they make me laugh.”
Can they pray with you?
Can they grow with you?
Can they walk through hard seasons with integrity & grace?
Can they help lead you closer to God instead of farther away?
Listen… nobody chooses perfectly every single time. In the vein of transparency, I will tell you, I didn't. I did not listen or align my heart after God. I am so thankful for the God of 2nd chances...
Even in that, God absolutely calls us to choose wisely.
So yes, moisturize the skin. Buy the cute outfit. Research the serum.
But also pray over your relationships with that SAME energy.
Because the right choice can change generations.
Your yes today is shaping your children, your children's children & your children's children's children!
