“It’s funny how one little decision…yes or no…can alter your entire life” was the opening line of a Jesus story. One momentous decision came when he was nineteen.
His plan was to go into either politics or law. And yet, during a mandatory public speaking class, he was challenged to audition for a college play. At the audition, he listened to the head noise, “You’re kidding yourself. You’re going to embarrass yourself!” and high tailed it out of there.
While sitting a coffee shop he heard, “If you back out because you’re afraid of not getting cast, then you’re a coward.” He went back. Auditioned. Got the part, which lead him down a path to Christ. One decision changed the course of his life.
It can do the same for you. I’ve heard it said, “Blessing is on the other side of obedience.” Many listen to Jesus in the Sunday message, but do nothing with it. Many listen to Jesus in devotionals, but leave the words on the page. Many hear Jesus’ voice through the pages of Scripture, but do nothing with them.
Hearing from Jesus is only half the equation. Following them by faith Spirit empowered is the other. One decision can change your life. Choose to follow what Jesus said to do today. Your life will never be the same again.
