Choices

....This is what God's servants can expect.
I'll see to it that everything works out for the best." Isaiah 54:17
Are we leaning into that promise? Many times I get focused on what is happening to us in this earthly life. As recounted in the verses before there are many many things that happen in our life over which we have not control and no way to avoid. But The God of the Universe who created even the angel of death who challenged Him and was thrown out of Heaven has control over ALL, not some, not just the good but ALL that exists in the Universe.Where have you placed your faith? Note " God's Servants" as specific to those who have accepted Him as Master of their life and live to SERVE HIS PURPOSES AND PLAN, this is what they "can expect". Joshua 24:15 reflects a CHOICE, "but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." So it is up to YOU, chose to have the Creator on your side or chose to go it alone. Not much of a choice is it? At my church yesterday a woman came to know that God loved her personally and chose to accept that love. Her whole physical appearance was changed from one of despair and defeat to one of peace and the knowledge she was no longer alone in her pain. Will her pain go away or the need to make choices every day NO but she will never be alone.
Thank you Father that satan has lost again. Thank you for sending Your Holy Spirit to ask me to let You into my life. Be with me and give me discernment in making choices today. Amen
