In Deuteronomy 30:19 – Moses says to Israel, "I have set before you life and death: therefore choose life."
You'd think you wouldn't have to make that appeal, that choosing life would be obvious. But I find no matter how long I've been at this, the call to choose comes up again and again, and it isn't obvious as I find myself choosing between:
Hard, but Good Easy and Mediocre
The uncomfortable unknown The safety of the world and life I know
Obedience Doing what I feel like
Brokenness/Vulnerability Numbness
Abandon/Surrender Holding On
Wrestling with God Having it all figured out
Mystery and Faith Clarity and Certainty
Trusting the Lord to lead Carrying the Burden of Life
