DECISIONS, DECISIONS, DECISIONS Romans 10:9 LISTEN NOW!!!
Greetings! BlogFam, I know it has been “forever” since my last post and
I can offer no excuses so I will leave them out of this blog and just keep
writing. I have been writing personally
but I have certainly missed writing in this way and publicly sharing my writing. However, we will celebrate that I am fully
present today in this space and I am grateful that my passion for writing has
not drifted, diminished, or died. So,
here we go again… at least today… and prayerfully for many more days in the
very near future. As most of you already know, Salvation and Stilettos is my
personal space to share my thoughts on scripture and on today, I admit that my
reflections begin from a place of personal introspection and observation and
our scripture is one that has come to my remembrance in light of recent events
in my own life and the lives of those around me – physically and
technologically. The bottom line summation of this entire reflection is this:
ONE decision can change your whole life.
ONE decision can alter the course of events in ways that you may or may
not anticipate. ONE decision can shift
your destiny or the destiny of those around you, those who are connected to you
or those from whom you have been disconnected.
ONE decision can change everything. Decisions. Decisions.
Decisions. We make them every day. And regardless of whether you think your
decision in the moment is of major consequence or of consequential
insignificance, the truth is that every decision we make can impact our lives
and our witness in ways that we may never know or completely understand. Lately, I have been hearing this word over and over again in
random and in previously scheduled conversations and while the word is common,
my hearing of it has echoed in the depths of my Spirit. And without going into too many details, a
few weeks ago, someone, whom I considered a dear friend made ONE decision that
I know has and will continue to impact their life way beyond the moment the
decision was made. And regardless of
whether my friend feels regret or relief, guilt or glory, shame or
satisfaction, I know that that ONE decision changed their life. Now, let me be clear, I am not going to offer you steps,
guidelines or rules to make good decisions, wise decisions, strategic
decisions, well thought out or compassionate decisions. It is simply my intention to REMIND you that
ONE decision can change your whole life. I have made a lot of decisions throughout my life and so
have you. We all make decisions every
day. A decision is the act or need to
make up one’s mind. Making decisions –
making up our minds about anyone or anything – is an inevitable factor in each
and every one of our lives. And on
today, I just want you to be reminded that the decisions you make about your
life or the lives of those around you mean something and will cost you
something whether you feel the impact of them negatively or positively or
not. And all it takes is ONE time to
make a decision to change everything. For once you have made up your mind about someone or
something you have indicated the judgment that has been made, determined a
preference or come to a conclusion. And
not making a decision is still a decision to stall, delay, avoid, or maybe even
pray about the matter before you that must be decided. BlogFam, on today, I submit to you that there is ONE
decision that all of us must make, determine, or come to and it is the decision
as to whether you will or will not follow Jesus. The decision to do so has present and eternal
consequences. This is the decision of
your soul. Now, I might not offer any other resources to help you make
the decisions that you need to make about anything else on today but I hope
that you have or that you will decide to CHOOSE JESUS! I pray that on today you will – if you have not
already – DECIDE to BELIEVE and CONFESS, CONFESS and BELIEVE as in Romans 10:9. That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus,
and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou
shalt be saved. BlogFam, I have made a lot of decisions in my life but the
ONE decision that I made so many years ago has made THE difference in my whole
life and the life that is to come. This
ONE decision changed my life and I live in light of its consequences every day. I do my very best to honor my decision to
CONFESS and BELIEVE and I pray that you will too. I know that this ONE decision impacts and
influences EVERY other decision about my life and my lifestyle and I do NOT want
to even guess, speculate, role play, imagine, or explore the path of my life
without Christ. I just pray that every
decision I make on every day reflects the decision I made many years ago to be
a follower of Christ. So, I am not sure whether this is the beginning of a new
series, as is my custom, or not, but I do know that DECISIONS – DECISIONS – DECISIONS
have been on my mind and my belief and confession is THE deciding factor in
every one of them. God Loves You and I Do Too! Delesslyn FOLLOW Me on Twitter- @AudraSunshine @SpiritedConcept @MyVISIONFast VISIT www.myvisionfast.com TODAY!
