It’s Up to Us August 27, 2025

If we deny God,

He will deny us.

Freedom is,

a great responsibility.

It’s our vehicle,

to either choose

the truth

or

to embrace the lie.

When it comes

to the ultimate

decision in this life,

we have free choice,

and

no one can take,

that away from us.

We can either

choose God

or

choose the world.

And

God is so fair,

we get exactly,

what we choose.

God

drops no one into Hell,

we jump.

We’ll praise God,

in the middle of all things,

good or bad

if we believe God

works all things to the good

for those who believe.

Thank God

for everything, be always joyful,

and pray continually.

This is how,

God desires

for His children in Christ Jesus

to live.

The single qualification

to be eligible for God’s help

is to be in trouble.

Liars love gossip so much they make it up and then pass it on.
