No one said the life of a believer is an easy life. It is a good life. It is the right life. And it is eternal life. But the path is posted with choices we must make every day. If you are looking for the world’s approval, you won’t find it here. Deception is not something that happens overnight. It happens one poor decision at a time until we find ourselves in a place we never thought we would go, doing what we never thought we would do, and staying longer than we ever thought we would be gone.
