Choose life.
December 8, 2020
Has death of someone you cherish rocked your world this year? Yes, grieve. Yes, reorder your world. Struggle through it all. Precious memories, regrets, unfinished business, and unknowns. Remember two precious words in Scripture. “Choose life.” We do not move on unchanged. But we do move! We don’t ‘get over it.’ But we do ‘get on with it’.
Oh, my friend, that’s not dishonoring the one you’ve lost. We honor them by choosing life. Deuteronomy 30:19 Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the Lord your God.
Special days are hard, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Years Eve. Talk to your child’s picture. Tell her you miss her. Write a letter to your mate and tuck it in the Christmas tree. Then choose life and celebrate those still with you.
