Choices In Time…
Time was on my side but was I making the right choices? I was making the right choices but was it in time? Confusing questions that came at a confusing time, but maybe I was just stuck in between choices and needed to make a choice…
I knew that time was starting to run out, but I was coming to a fork in the road, and I either go this way or that way. I knew at some point in time I was going to come to this fork in the road. I knew at some point in time along this journey I would have to make this choice. I would have to decide if I will be taking God along with me or not. What I mean by that is am I willing to keep God’s word in the forefront of my mind no matter the situation. This has nothing to do with being religious and going around yelling and quoting scripture all day. This is just a simple fact that I believe in His Word and understand the power of His Words. Was I going to make the choice to bring God along with me or not? Choices In Time…
For me making a choice to bring God along with me in everything that I do allows me to live with love and faithfulness written on my heart, my mind. By keeping God and His Word in the forefront of my mind I am able to move about life stress free. See, we were already delivered from stress but through Jesus Christ we are free from stress. Doesn’t mean that the stress isn’t present, just means that the stress has no power. It is hard for something to have power if it’s neglected its power source, Me. That is like me trying to turn on the lights in my house without light bulbs. The power provided by the power company has all the power in the world to light up my house, but the lightbulbs provide the authority for the power to be displayed.
The wrong authority was being displayed in my life. The authority of fear, guilt, shame, etc. was lighting up my entire world. It was a bright light, but it was bringing the wrong vibe with it. It was the wrong light and I needed to speak up and have an honest moment with myself. I was displaying the wrong light, and while it seemed to have its ups, they were false. It was like drinking the best cup of coffee only to realize at 3pm it comes with a hard crash. I was tired of the afternoon crash in my life. I was tired of the amazing false upper only to come crashing hard. It was time that I tryout a new lightbulb company. The original light. Choices In Time…
This was a new time for me, this was a time that I took a back seat ride. This was a time for me to allow God to be in the driver seat and for me to start to open up and live life with people. But this time with a better mindset, a right mindset. This was a time to allow the right lightbulb to be displayed through action, through love and faithfulness. This was a choice that in time I know will be displayed for His glory and not mine. I know that the right choices with the right action steps will lead to the right results. For me I had to make that right choice by placing God at the top of the list and then allow everything else to come. Finally, back in the game of Life the Right Way…
“But seek ye first the Kingdom of God, and His Righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” (Matthew 6:33)
