From the Pulpit: The choice is mine
By:
Merv Kramer, Brandon Valley Baptist Church
Life is full of choices.
Every day we make many, some we don’t even think about.
I came across an anonymous article a while back, which is quite helpful in making wise ones, entitled, “Just for Today.”
- I will try to live through this day only, not tackling all my problems at once.
- I will try to be happy ... realizing that my happiness does not depend on what others do or say.
- I will try to adjust myself to what is and not force everything to adjust to my own desires.
- I will take care of my physical health and exercise my mind by reading something spiritual.
- I will do somebody an act of love, even if they never find out who did it.
- I will go out of my way to be kind to someone I meet.
- I will stop saying, “If I only had time,” and instead make time for the essentials.
- I will have a quiet time of meditation with God as I seek the truth.
- I will accept myself and live to the best of my ability.
- I will choose to believe that I can live this one day.
The choice is mine.
