The life of a Christian is made of choices, decisions to be made: whether to stay in the embraces of the world or to face a world in need of Jesus’ love, whether to forget our First Love – like He could ever could be forgotten – or to watch and pray for His return, and whether to be a self-righteous, crusty, holier-than-thou character or to be completely cognizant of your nothingness in comparison to the paralyzing brightness of God’s glory. Deciding to stop deciding for yourself can seem overwhelming at first young glimpse, but O dear Christian! Can you not see? God’s loving arms will engulf you, and little by little each decision that you give over to Christ will be easier and even sweeter than the one before. He will be the epitome of your love life, as you surrender each step to His power.

"For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His Own special people, zealous for good works." -Titus 2:11-14
