We all have to make decisions or choices willingly or unwillingly. One decision here, another choice there, is a daily task for everyone. Some people avoid making decisions; other people let someone else make the decision for them. If we don't take charge of our lives, we will be constantly pulled in or pushed in one direction or another, whether it's the right way or the wrong way. There is one decision that a person must make on their own, the decision to accept or reject Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. If you do accept Him, you will have to discipline yourself to keep from being PULLED back into the life that you turned away from. As a Christian, if you stray or move away from the close relationship you have with the Lord Jesus Christ, you are in danger of your old nature returning to take over your life. Your strength to PUSH away from that old nature will greatly depend on your desire to keep a close relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. The attraction to sin is great and it can PULL us toward wrongdoing, therefore, each of us must be spiritually strong enough to PUSH away from it.
