The Choices We Make

One of the most basic freedoms God has given us is the freedom of choice. This reflects His own character, for He is a God of choice and commitment. The decisions we make, however, can have a dramatic impact on the shape and texture of our lives. The course we take can radically alter our experiences and destiny. Because the decisions we make are so important, the Lord has spared no effort to help us in our choices. He has given us His Word and His Holy Spirit to be our guide. He oversees our decisions and will graciously forgive us when we fall short of His purpose. The God who gave us this freedom now calls us to exercise this privilege. Indecision is not an option. It is all too easy for us to sit back and let life happen. If we want to grow in our relationship with God, however, there are decisions we will need to make. In this study, we will examine what the Bible has to say about our freedom to choose and reveal what Scripture has to say about the choices and decisions we make.
