(1 Timothy 5:6) A dead alcoholic was once asked, “What do you want most?” He said, “A sip of whiskey.” Living for sin has a way of making you feel alive while the soul agonizingly dies inside. Your heart will race, adrenaline will pump through your veins, the world will seem like it bows down to you when living for what gratifies your flesh. All the while you are marching to your grave. Live in Christ. Walking dead belongs to those outside of Christ.                                           

                   (Matthew 22:37-40)      Love is a choice. It is the choice that compels us to put God first and others above ourselves. We choose to submit to, work for, and serve those around us. We often think love is something more or mystical. The truth is love is a choice. It is a choice made daily and in each moment between ourselves or others. Love is kind, longsuffering, believing, selfless, and never failing - the reason it carries those attributes is because it’s a choice. If you love the way God loves you, you choose to be kind, longsuffering, believing, selfless, etc. Souls need us to make this choice. Our brothers and sisters in Christ need us to make this choice. We need to make this choice for ourselves. God desires us to make this choice. The real question is, will you make a choice to love?
