John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.
Life can be beautiful when we get on the right track. The right track is following Christ.
There are so many choices we can make in this life. But making the right ones will determine how things turn out for us.
The most important choice we make is knowing who we give our heart to first and foremost. We may think this is referring to a spouse or friends, etc. But our heart should already belong to Someone else before we take those other steps. Our heart should belong to Jesus Christ.
Why? Because He is our key to living. He gives us life and life more abundantly. He gives us salvation and a life of joy while we are here on this earth, as we walk each day with Him. He wants to be married to us first, as our very best friend, to be there to help guide us in this life.
Once we fully trust Christ with our heart and our life He will guide our steps and show us what is good for us. As we let Him guide us, the decisions we make from there will be very productive. Our walk will be beautiful. Even as we face some of the hardest decisions we will have to make, it will be good.
Some may say, “well, I have already chosen my spouse and friends on my own. Where do I start now?
Christ meets us where we are at, just like He met the woman at the well. She had already been with 5 men. And the one she was currently with wasn’t her husband. Some may think that Jesus would have turned her away. But He didn’t. And He won’t turn us away.
John 4:17-18 (NKJV) 17 The woman answered and said, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You have well said, ‘I have no husband,’ 18 for you have had five husbands, and the one whom you now have is not your husband; in that you spoke truly.”
The most important thing to remember is Christ forgives and gives us an opportunity to fix things up. He is forever forgiving, compassionate, kindhearted and loving.
So, if we started off on the wrong track with our life, and we are wishing we had done things differently, it’s not too late.
Give Jesus our heart and our situation and let Him help us to make good decisions and choices where we are at right now.
He will begin a good work in us and complete it. Amen.
Philippians 1:6 (NKJV) 6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ…
