Choose Life
"I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord."
Deut. 30:19c,20a~"..Therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live; that you may love the LORD your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days..."
11 Samuel 12:14c,16a~Words spoken by the prophet Nathan to David regarding his son born as a result of David's sin~"...the child also who is born to you shall surely die." ~ David pleaded with God for the child...
And Jesus, in the garden, chose life,"If it be possible, let this cup pass from me.."
Sometimes we are handed a death sentence in life. Always choose life. Always pray for life. And then, if it is your time to go, you can cry out like Jesus cried out on the cross, "Father, into your hands I commend my spirit." But always choose life and submit to the Father of life and live well here on earth or in Heaven.
It is good to want to live.
