Everyday, from the time we wake up to the time we go to bed, we make a lot of choices. In the same way, we have made plenty of choices in life, that have brought us where we are today. We need to be very careful about the choices we make, for they have consequences that we have to bear; hence an instruction is been given to us very clearly to choose life: “Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. Now I call on heaven and earth to witness the choice you make. Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live!” (Deut 30:19). We can never blame any situation or people for our success or failure, happiness or misery, because we are responsible for the decisions we make. Let’s earnestly ask God’s guidance before making any major decisions in our lives, so that we may live in prosperity.

Abba, thank You for reminding us to choose life always. Let Your Spirit enlighten us and enable us to choose only life and blessings, in Jesus’ Most Wonderful Name, Amen.
