Endless possibilities

Gen:13,14

Lot took a long look

Lot chose for himself

Lot moved his tents to a place near Sodom

Lot lived in Sodom. 

A gradual gradation that ultimately led to his destruction or to be precise his gradual erasure. All he did was to take a long look and to choose for himself. 

How pathetic his standards (Gen 19:8) and his daughter's standards (Gen 19:31-32) finally turned out to be. 

A subtle compromise to be influenced, to be indulged, to enjoy the pleasures of sin. Because the benefits of playing around with sin was more alluring than the choice to stay holy. I am not saying this should be a motivation to live a sinless life. That's not possible. 

But what is your priority. What is your desire about your life? What would you compromise to live a life that you plan to have? What is the number one priority that you will never compromise on and what are the lists down the order which can accommodate for the numero uno? 

Like Lot? One's own self and fertile plains are more important than living close to God. 

Or like Abraham? Staying close to God and His promises and building altars wherever he goes and worships; he believed God and God counted him as righteous because of his faith. 

Your life depends on the choices you take. Like the Watcher says in "What if?.... " It's more than a linear path. It's like a prism with endless possibilities. 

Choose which facet of the prism you want. I can assure you there is only one facet which is best for you in your life and there is someone who has formed you in your mother's womb, who knows it even before. 

Better to sit and prioritise your life in the right way.
