YOUR CHOICE!

I did not write this, but I believe it should be passed on. I say this with urgency. The following article is one that everyone should read and maybe read it again. God has given you this life and freedom to make wise choices in hopes that you follow His Instructions.  God’s love for you is so great that He sacrificed His Son, Jesus Christ, to pay for your sins. Just ask yourself, would you do that to save someone from eternal death? This is not a subject that you should seriously put off as there may not be another day or opportunity. Just ask yourself, how many times have you made a wrong choice? You can choose not to read this, it’s your choice. Jesus loves you and so do I

There is a tragedy that rarely makes headlines; it is not war, famine, or disease. It is a soul that heard the whisper of God and yet kept living as if they didn’t. Many people feel the tug; they sense it in the quiet moments, in the middle of the night, in the conviction that rises when they know they were made for more. The Lord calls, not always with thunder, but often with a still, small voice… Yet, how many brush it aside, saying, ‘I’ll get serious later; I’ll repent when I’m older; I’ll answer Him when life slows down.’ But life does not slow down; it speeds up

(James 4:14). For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away, a vapor here for a moment, gone before you can grasp it.

And eternity – eternity does not end; there is no clock in eternity, no calendar, no turning back

(Hebrews 2:3). How shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation?

Notice, it does not say ‘reject with hatred’; it says ‘with neglect.’ You do not have to curse God to be lost; you simply have to ignore Him.

In Matthew 22:14, it says, ‘For many are called, but few are chosen.’

Many are called; the invitation goes out wide; the Spirit convicts; the Word is preached; the tug is real, but few respond with surrender.

Mark 10:21-22 says the rich, young ruler walked away sorrowful;

he felt the call; he stood face-to-face with truth, and still, he walked away; he chose comfort over calling. How many are doing the same today?

Jesus warned in Matthew 16:26, ‘For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul?’

You can build a career; you can gain applause; you can fill your life with distractions, but if you silence the voice of God long enough, your heart grows dull; conviction becomes easier to ignore; the call becomes quieter, not because God stopped speaking, but because the heart stopped listening. Today, there is mercy, grace, and opportunity.

Second Corinthians 6:12 says, ‘Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation,’

not tomorrow, not when it’s convenient, but now. Eternity is not a theory; it is a reality. Jesus spoke more about hell than anyone in Scripture because He did not want a single soul to go there. God is not willing that any should perish (Second Peter 3:9), but He will not force a heart that refuses Him. This life is a breath; eternity is forever. Do not trade heaven for temporary pleasures; do not silence the call that is trying to save you; do not let neglect become rejection. When God calls, it is not to control you; it is to rescue you

(John 10:10). It is to give you life more abundantly; it is to prepare you for a kingdom that cannot be shaken (Hebrews 12:28). If He is tugging on your heart, that is mercy; answer Him, because one day the call will stop, not because God’s love ended, but because time did. And when time closes, eternity opens. Choose wisely.
