1. Today I choose LOVE ......No occasion justifies hatred. No injustice warrants bitterness , I choose love. Today I will love Jesus and what Jesus loves . ( John 3:16-17)
2. Today I choose GRACIOUSNESS.....I will overlook the inconveniences of the world. Instead of cursing the one who gets ahead of me anywhere, I will invite him/her to do so. Rather than complain that the wait is too long, I will thank Jesus for a moment to pray. Instead of clenching my fist at new assignments, I will face them with Holy Spirit joy & courage.
3.Today I choose SELF-CONTROL.....I am a spiritual being. After this body has died, my spirit will soar. I refuse to let what will perish , rule the ETERNAL. I choose self-control. I wil be impassioned only by FAITH, I will be influenced only by JESUS. I will be taught only by the Living Word & the written Word.
4.Today I choose JOY..........I will invite JESUS to be Lord of my circumstances, I will refuse the temptation to be cynical...the tool of idealism turned sour. I will refuse to see people as anything less than human beings, created by God. I will refuse to see any problem as anything less than an opportunity to see GOD.
More choices to come in future days......PLEASE ALWAYS CHOOSE THE BEST WAY , JESUS IS THE WAY ,THE TRUTH & THE LIFE....Choose Him & you will be at PEACE with God , yourself & a dying world!
SELAH
Praying for all of you.

JESUS FULL OF GRACE & TRUTH
John 1:16-17 ''FROM THE FULNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER. v 17 FOR THE LAW WAS GIVEN THROUGH MOSES;GRACE & TRUTH CAME THROUGH JESUS CHRIST."
In this time in history I believe it is imperitive for us to remember that if we claim to be Disciples of Jesus Christ then we to are required to be full of God's grace & God's truth as found through His Son :JESUS CHRIST!
You see if we are all grace & no truth then we have the concern that the standard of Holiness & a healthy reverence for God could be lacking. Similarly if we choose all truth & no grace we then could easily fall into the area of Pharisaism , legalism, judgemental, critical spirited people.
Today I want to encourage you to want to be like JESUS.....living in God's balance of GRACE & TRUTH.
Don't become unbalanced in your understanding of the authentic Saviour ....King Jesus...read the Bible ,it will soon give you His true reflection!
Need to be gracious today to someone then please be that in Jesus' Name !
Need to speak God's truth? Then tell it with love that is pure love from God.
Praying for you all today!
