Life Is About Your Decisions

The Narrow Path
Daily devotions

Dan 1:8 But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way.

Occasionally, we try to be sympathetic to those who are in sin for example the prostitutes, trying to understand them or if you ask them the reason they are living such a life of selling their body one of the reason they will tell you is that because we need to feed ourselves we need to feed our kids, if you ask the socialites who are trending nowadays on Facebook by posting nudes pictures for them to gain attention, they will say It’s because we must feed ourselves we must look after ourselves no one can help us in terms of our needs, and we have decided to leave this way to help ourselves.

But life is about your decision, it is not about the circumstances that are around you but the decision you will make based on those circumstances and also considering morals and values.

In the Bible there is a story of Daniel Shadrick, Misherk nd Abednego the king assigned them a daily amount of food and wine from the king’s table when they were in Babylon but Daniel and his friends chose to eat vegetables not the meat that was offered to gods, in another word they were offered a life of a king, but they chose to eat the vegetables, to eat the food that was considered to be junk food so that they cannot defile their God, others are choosing to destroy their morals and values others are choosing to die hungry instead of destroying their morals and values, while others are choosing to be prostitutes choosing to compromise their morals and values on social media, others are also choosing to stop than to leave a compromised life meaning that life is about your decision.

I would rather die than be a prostitute. I would rather starve to death than show my nudes to the world. These are other decisions being made by other people to preserve their morals and values While others are choosing to destroy their morals in return for the food that was denied by Daniel.

*Life is about your decision, don’t make excuses*
