Choose Life

We are in the season of Lent...
"See, I have set before you this day life and good, death and evil.
If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God
which I command you this day,
by loving the Lord your God,
by walking in his ways,
and by keeping his commandments
and his statutes and his ordinances,
then you shall live and multiply,
and the Lord your God will bless you
in the land which you are entering
to take possession of it.
But if your heart turns away,
and you will not hear,
but are drawn away
to worship other gods and serve them,
I declare to you this day,
that you shall perish;...
I have set before you life and death,
blessing and curse;
therefore choose life,
that you and your descendants may live,
loving the Lord your God,
obeying his voice,
and cleaving to him;
for that means life to you and length of days..."
(Deuteronomy 30:15-20)
