The meaning of life. The wasted years of life. The poor choices of life. God answers the mess of life with one word: 'grace.'
If there are a thousand steps between us and God, He will take all but one. He will leave the final one for us. The choice is ours.
Resentment is when you allow what’s eating you to eat you up. Revenge is the raging fire that consumes the arsonist. Bitterness is the trap that snares the hunter. And mercy is the choice that can set them all free.
There are many things in life over which you have no choice. But the greatest activity of life is well within your dominion. You can choose what you think about. You can be the air traffic controller of your mental airport. You occupy the control tower and can direct the mental traffic of your world. Thoughts circle above, coming and going. If one of them lands, it's because you gave it permission. If it leaves, it's because you directed it to do so. You can select your thought pattern.
Democracy is the right choice and is the greatest form of government ever created.
