“Minute of Meditation: Decisions”

Do you have some decisions to make?  What do I wear today? Should I take a different route to work due to construction? Should I have a bagel or an English muffin for breakfast?

 

Some decisions are much harder. Should I go to college or vocational school?  Is this the person God wants me to marry? Should Grandpa live with us, or be put in a retirement home? Should I bail my troubled child out of jail or show him tough love and make him learn that there are consequences for bad choices? Should I be buried or cremated?

 

Decision making is an act of responsibility.  As we go through life, we have many important decisions to make.  But the greatest decision and the one decision that gives wisdom to all other decisions we make is the decision to follow Christ.

 

1Cor. 2:2 states, “For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.”

 

As the old hymn states, “I have decided to follow Christ, no turning back, no turning back.” What about you?

This is Mark T. Tonkery with a minute of meditation from the Camden Ave. church of Christ where you are always welcome.
