Good Morning,
Tuesday morning and it will be a long day and it will last all day. I just feel like splashing Door County Churros Coffee on my face to wake up.
Daniel 1:8 But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way.
Each day serves us up options and it is for some not anything they can take a pass on despite the consequences.
For instance. Today could serve you up a big helping of anger. You can take a bite of it or pass on it.
Today could serve you up a big helping of disappointment. You can take a bite of it or pass on it.
Today could serve you up a day of depression. You can take a bite of it or pass on it.
Today could serve you up a big bowl of discouragement. You can take a bite of it or pass on it.
It's your choice to live as if there is no God and the story of a risen Savior is just a story. Jesus was risen to defeat the power of Satan who strives to defeat us with anger, disappointment, depression, and discouragement. Jesus came from the grave that we too might live a resurrected life. Satan might serve it up, but you have the power not to dine on his offerings.
John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.
John 16:33 I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But I have overcome the world.
Daniel passed on the things that were not lawful for him to eat or drink. He chose good over wrong. He chose to live undefeated.
What's your choice today? Misery or living resurrected? Are you stuck under a bridge unable to move? Back up, let some air out of your over inflated tires and move on through. Don't let Satan hold you back from living a resurrected life.
Marty
