You Keep Your Choice

By: Gabriela Yareliz

In a time where discernment is everything (so seeking God’s wisdom is paramount), we decide whether we stay in darkness. Scripture illustrates often how those who choose blindness, darkness, and pride are permitted by God to keep it.

If you choose blindness, you will get to stay blind. If you choose to turn away from light, you won’t be forced to turn back toward the light that shines on all of us. God doesn’t go against our choices. There is no override button. Our choices become the key to our destiny.

We can also choose light, which reveals much in darkness. I thought about this as I read Isaiah 9:2:

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.”

A light has dawned. ✨
