Choices

Who we are today is the result of choices we made yesterday. Tomorrow, we will become what we choose today. (John Maxwell, leadership author and speaker)

Sometimes we don’t really understand how important our choices are. We are where we are today because of choices we made in the past. We may be happy about some but sorry about others. That alone should make us think carefully about the decisions we may be called on to make today. As Maxwell says, our choices will determine who we will become.

Today I have given you the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. . . .  Oh, that you would choose life, so that you and your descendants might live! (Deuteronomy 30:19)
