Accepting Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior is the best choice I could have ever made. Off and on have struggled with my flesh. Now what I struggle with is....why didn't I make Him my Lord and Savior sooner? Well, it wasn't my choice then because I did not choose Him but He chose me and because He
What a great posting, Cathy.
What you wrote is so true. God has blessed each of us with a freewill. We are able to freely make our choices.
May we choose Him, his life, and his truth in every circumstance!

Accepting Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior is the best choice I could have ever made. Off and on have struggled with my flesh. Now what I struggle with is....why didn't I make Him my Lord and Savior sooner? Well, it wasn't my choice then because I did not choose Him but He chose me and because He chose me, I can make better choices that glorify Him and keep me in the will of our Heavenly Father. As I grow in my spiritual walk, the Holy Spirit helps me choose what's right. It guides me and protects me. I can never repay Him for what He has done for me because there is nothing I can give Him except to allow Him to continue rule in my life. Besides who can do me like Jesus! :) Nobody!
