Ultimate Choice
Posted on Jan 08, 2008 under God' Plan |For to Me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.
Plilippians 1:21
To live is Christ. I keep thinking about this. I’ve pondered it all day and figured I should just write what’s in my head regarding it. Not sure if it will make sense, though.
Do you remember the WWJD? bracelets and shirts and things from several years ago? It was all about trying to make choices based upon what we know or what we suppose Christ would do. As we muddle through our day, we must choose and choose and choose. With prayer and conviction, we will choose Christ. When we stray, when we forget the prize, we often regret our choices.
And then, “to die is gain.” Every choice we make with Christ in mind is another step closer to our reward. By dying, we gain eternal life with our King. Remembering the real prize makes choosing Christ in our lives so much easier.
Today, I made an effort to choose to live for Christ. I must remember to do that each day.
