                THE BIGGEST DECISION

      "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you
                   will be saved."

                    - Acts 16:31

Decisions!  Decisions!  Decisions!  We're constantly
making decisions.  Some are trivial, like, "Which
outfit will I wear today?"  Others are life-shaping,
like, "Should I take that job and move my family
clear across the country?"  But common sense tells
us that some are vastly more important than others.

A group of doctors ran an ad in a New York newspaper.
Over the picture of an attractive woman, the caption
read, "The most important decision I ever made was
choosing my spouse.  The second, my plastic surgeon."
The text of the ad then suggested that the order of
priorities could be reversed!

Choosing a spouse is immeasurably more important than
choosing a plastic surgeon.  But deciding to put your
trust in Jesus as your Savior is the most important
decision you can make in life.

The apostle Peter told a group of unbelievers about
Jesus and encouraged them to turn from their sin and
trust Him (Acts 2).  Peter's words speak to us today
as well.  If you haven't accepted Christ's free gift
of forgiveness, pray to Him and ask Him to save you.
And once you've done that, make the second most
important decision:  Determine to follow Christ's
leading daily.

    -- Vernon C. Grounds

 If you'd like to know the love of God the Father,
 Come to Him through Jesus Christ, His loving Son;
 He'll forgive your sins and save your soul forever,
 And you'll love forevermore this faithful One.

    -- Felten

      Life's biggest decision is what
             you do with Jesus.
