Choices and Consequences

So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company:
Gen 13:11 NIV

By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
Heb 11:8‭, ‬10 NIV

If you are driving down a highway, you will often find exits to two directions east or west. Your choice often depends on where you want to go, but all its takes is a decision to choose. In life we are faced we many choices, but it's the choice we make that will determine  the consequences not just for us but for our generations to come. Adam chose to eat the apple, mankind had to bear original sin. Abraham chose to offer Issac, God blessed him with descendants as many as sand on shore. Although we all have free will, when we say Father let your will be done, we allow what God consequences in our life. And surely God has plans for our good. As Jesus said yes to the cross, we inherited eternal life.

I pray that you seek in all earnestness the will of God our Father in your life, and like Jesus may you be obedient to His will. May his Holy Spirit give you courage and strength in remaining faithful to your yes to the Father's will. Amen

God Bless you and your loved ones :)
