Choose Life

There are so many stories in the world. Everyone has a story. Every thing has a story. Joys and sorrows, days and nights, rainstorms and sunshine, winters and summers, smiles and tears, are interwoven. Wherever someone’s story is now, there’s more coming. New friendships will arrive. A husband or wife, Children. New homes. New neighbours. Careers. Dreams. Plans. Hopes. Aspirations. Miracles. There’s more coming. 

But every day, every hour, every minute, a story is being stopped. The threads are roughly snapped. The weaving is destroyed. 

Some of those weavings are only days or weeks old. They are ruthlessly destroyed by pills or suction or any other abortion procedure. Future children are killed. Future friendships are prevented. New hobbies and dreams and smiles and stories are smothered. The world is robbed of inventions and the unique sparkle of that person.

Other weavings are more complete. They are cut short by the hand of the person themselves. The story is stopped abruptly. God’s weaving is destroyed.

God doesn’t want stories to end in death. God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die.” (John 5:24 & 11:25-26). God wants every story to end in everlasting life. He is not  willing that any should perish. He did everything He could for us to triumph over death—it is up to us whether we accept what He did or not. 

Choose life. Choose life over abortion. Choose life over suicide. Choose life over eternity in Hell. Choose life. And watch God weave your story and that of those around you... and be amazed by His work.
