Incremental Choices

 

I have chosen the 
   way of faithfulness.

          Psalm 119. 30

We do not just stumble upon
   being faithful to God.
Faithful tomorrow
   requires faithful today,
an intentional decision made
          multiple times a day.
What does faithfulness look like
  in what we face today?
Sometimes an obvious choice.
Sometimes a harder 
      course of action.
But we choose
what we ultimately love,
desire and delight in.
And faithfulness changes 
    the trajectory of our lives.
"How we spend our days is,
of course, how we spend
our lives." --Annie Dillard
What do we choose?

O LORD,
Infiltrate our hearts,
invade our decisions,
guide us into faithfulness,
make Your way obvious,
and grant us the courage
      to follow You into it.
We make choices every day.
We choose You.
Create in us a new heart
and let faithfulness
   get all over 
   what we do today.
