HOW DO you make choices in life?

Did you buy those trainers because you'd feel happier? Have you stopped talking to that person since they hurt you? Choices.

How did you end up where you are now? Surrounded by the friends you have and the comforts you love. How did you choose this life and not some other life?

Christians aren't supposed to live aimlessly; just following life's desires until they end up with the husband/wife and kids, car and semi-detached house (wondering how on earth they got to that position).

Christians are called to live another kind of life altogether.

Jesus challenged people to follow Him and said that no one - that's right, no one - would be able to do so unless they were willing to give up all they had.

He called people out of lives of affluence and accumulation. But what are we suppose to live for instead?

Jesus promised that the highest expression of life was to give your life for others - to live a life of love. He told His followers to make a choice. To decide what it is they really wanted to live for. To choose something better.

How about you - what you are living for?

Take life and live it to the max, squeeze every drop of beauty out of it. Choose to know the pleasure of being alive and share that life with everyone else, even where it is at your own cost.

If eternity is real we can't afford to waste a moment.
