Deuteronomy 30:19b-20a
I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and holding fast to him; for that means life to you
*      *      *      *      *      *       *       *
Choose life....seems like a no brainer but on a daily basis our action deny the life we value. Our thoughtless word choices do more harm than good.  We choose distance from people when it is in community that we thrive. We cling to patterns of violence or substance abuse rather than deciding to live well and love boldly. Whatever decisions we have made or continue to make that lead to death alone, there is another way.  Jesus is the way.  The first and best choice that we can make is to get back to basics. Love God. Love others.  Live. 
*      *      *      *      *      *       *       *
Holy God, Chooser of Life, we choose you again. Amen.
