the choice is yours

I am in the middle of a process. I hate “the process.”It takes too long for my liking.

But because the process grows and shapes me and my character I can handle it.

There are some things that have happened to me in the past that I have dealt with to the point that I could at the time, but I am dealing with these things at a more intimate level.

In the past when some of these things were on the forefront of my mind I let myself be down. I would let myself be depressed. I got into very unhealthy thought patterns and picked up unhealthy habits.

As I sit here in church Pastor Chris shared a verse from Deuteronomy. The main point is “now choose life”.

In this process I can choose to get down, or I can choose life. I can recognize that this process will give hope and joy to others.
I am encouraged to pursue this process, the pain and the triumph.

So choose life. Choose joy.
