A Matter of Choice

Doing good is a matter of choice. You cannot do well or be of any good if you have unforgiveness in your heart. Unforgiveness brings pain and motivates you to revenge. You cannot do well if you have hatred in your heart. Harbouring hatred in our hearts drags us down to the pit of bitterness. You will find it hard to do any good if all you are preoccupied with is offence. Offence will surely come but it must not stop you from being a good person. Doing good is a matter of choice, your choice. When you choose to do good in spite of what has been done to you, heaven will applaud you. You will find peace of mind and satisfaction. It is better to give than to receive because in giving there is fulfilment, joy and happiness. The ability is in you to do good, the power is in you to do evil. The choice is yours. Doing good brings life, doing evil brings death, unhappiness and pain. Doing good is a matter of your will being submitted to the will of God. God desires that you do good unto others, as you would have them do unto you. If someone has wronged you continue to do good to that person. If you are hurt don’t stop doing good, as the good that you do will eventually become a testimonial of the true person that you are, so I encourage you today to continue to do good.
