Devotional
Life rarely crumbles in an instant. Like a building’s slow deterioration, our spiritual decline often results from a series of small compromises and poor decisions. Each choice we make either strengthens our foundation or weakens it. Sometimes we don’t realize we’re heading downward until we’ve traveled far from where we intended to be. Yet even in these moments, God’s grace remains constant and available. Understanding the power of our choices helps us make wiser decisions that align with God’s will for our lives. Today, consider the choices before you. Each one matters more than you might think.
Bible Verse
“The LORD is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love.” – Psalm 145:8
Reflection Question
What small compromises in your life might be leading you away from God’s best path for you?
Quote
“Hitting bottom is rarely the result of a single decision that we make… But more so, we tend to hit bottom after we’ve made a series of bad choices and bad decisions.” – Pastor Jerry Madden
Prayer
Heavenly Father, grant me wisdom to make choices that honor You. Help me recognize when I’m compromising and give me strength to choose Your way, even when it’s difficult. Thank You for Your patience with me. Amen.
