Today's Scripture *April 28, 2009*

Genesis 13: 10-11

Lot took a long look at the fertile plains of the Jordan Valley in the direction of Zoar. The whole area was well watered everywhere, like the garden of the Lord or the beautiful land of Egypt. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.) Lot chose for himself the whole Jordan Valley to the east of them. He went there with his flocks and servants and parted company with his uncle Abram.

Lot's character is revealed by his choices. He took the best share of the land even though it meant living near Sodom, a city known for it's sin. He was greedy, wanting the best for himself, without thinking about his uncle Abram's needs or what was fair.

Life presents a series of choices. We, too, can choose the best while ignoring the needs and feelings of others. But this kind of choice, as Lot's life shows, leads to problems. When we stop making choices in God's direction, our only option is to make choices in the wrong direction.

God, we want to make choices that are in Your direction!

We want more of You and less of us! Help us to not be selfish in any manner of our lives.

We praise You, Lord Jesus. In Your Name, Amen..

God bless,

April
