Choose One

You Only have one Life


I think many people get confused with what life they live. Nobody knows which way you'll go, it's up to you. Nobody can control you, the best someone can do is guide you. "I can lead you to the water but cannot make you drink".

Yes we all make mistakes, but one of the common mistakes us humans make is living two lives. Whether it be- Church life, what our parents want, impressing different groups of friends, religious groups, impressing our co-workers or pleasing people, etc.

• We like to change depending on who we're with, thats a common mistake we all make. But one I've noticed a lot is, constantly making the same mistake and learning the hard way. And most of the time, we know it's wrong. But just do it anyways. "Is it too much to ask, to simply stop and think?"

• Another is, we find fullfilment in earthly things. Like: how many likes we get on instagram or facebook, bragging about our money or gifts, constantly buying new things, partying, our boyfriends/girlfriends etc. It's totally okay to share with people and brag here and there (if it's done with the right mind set). But when you try to live independently of God, you expierence of empitness and dissatisfaction.

Basically,
We may think we're gaining so much from living these two seperate lives or being filled with temperary happiness through earthly things, but truthfully, we're losing everything that really counts. God wants you to live close to Him, even with all the mistakes you've made. Surreneder to Him. Surrender everything you've done wrong, and everything that you've put before Him to make Him last prioity. God puts us through hard times, and paths that dont alien us. But TRUST in Him, and what He is doing is best for you.

*If you live this one life wholeheartedly, you will discover so much more things about yourself that you never knew.
