journal/PERFORMANCE IS A CHOICE

WE have many CHOICES in today's world as to HOW we are going to bring GOD and CHRIST'S LIGHT into the world-or if we are going to do so at all

WE CAN CHOOSE GOOD or we choose evil-we can choose to HELP the poor and we can
LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR-we can have RESPECT AND COMPASSION for others or we can treat
Them as if they don't matter

REACH OUT to GOD today-love GOD and love others

IT is a GREAT DAY to be ALIVE! in God's LOVE for us and our world














PERFORMANCE IS A CHOICE




EVERYTHING in life
Is a choice


Either a conscious choice
Or a subconscious choice
Which is a REFLECTION
Of our inner attitudes and values


WE choose our mates
We choose our career
And we choose our religion


In truth
We even choose LIFE
Or death by our own actions
In some circumstances


And we choose
IF we have an after life
By whether or not
We KEEP the ten commandments
Or what Jesus told us
Were the two GREATEST commandments


LOVE OF GOD
And LOVE OF OTHERS


CHOOSE life
CHOOSE PERFORMANCE
CHOOSE being a representative
Of God


“This day
I call heaven and earth
As witnesses against you


That I have set before you
BLESSINGS and curses
LIFE and death


NOW CHOOSE LIFE
So that you
And your children may live” Deuteronomy 30:19


And just as it is true
IF we prepare properly
We are GOOD at a career


And train properly
We can be GOOD at athletics


IT IS TRUE
That we can be REPRESENTATIVES of God
If we prepare and are TRUE to GOD’S WORD


PERFORMANCE is a choice
Being a representative
Of God
IS A CHOICE


And God CHOSE us
Even before
We had the opportunity to choose him


“You did not choose me
But I chose you
And appointed you
To go
And BEAR FRUIT-
FRUIT THAT WILL LAST


Then the FATHER
Will give you
Whatever you ask in my name


This is my command
LOVE EACH OTHER” John 15:16-17


And he SHOWED us
HOW to live perfectly in life
In life-and in DEATH


So Christ told us
And showed us
As did Saint Francis
Who bore the wounds of Christ
In the stigmata-on HIS BODY


And Saint Francis told us
“SPEAK the gospel
At ALL times
And USE words if necessary”


So to perform for God
Is a choice
OUR CHOICE


Performance includes actions
OUR ACTIONS


REMEMBER-your performance
In your job requires actions


As does
BELIEF IN GOD


“CHOOSE for yourselves-THIS DAY
WHOM you will serve
But as for me and my household
WE will serve the Lord” Joshua 24:15


I chose God
I HOPE you will too
