From the Heart of Brother Jesse – Monday, May 19, 2025 – Small Choices, Eternal Consequences

Dear Friends,

In the quiet moments of our daily lives, we make decisions that shape our hearts and ultimately our eternity. Some of those choices appear insignificant—what we prioritize, where our time goes, what fills our thoughts. But as I shared in Sunday’s message from Exodus 20:3 (NLT), “You must not have any other god but me,” those small decisions add up, and they reveal what we truly worship.

It’s easy to assume we are free of idols because we don't bow before carved images. But idols in our modern world are far more subtle and, often, far more dangerous. They take the shape of desires we won’t surrender, addictions we justify, ambitions we protect, or comforts we place above obedience.

A God-centered life does not drift toward devotion—it must be directed there, intentionally, prayerfully, and faithfully. That’s why the first pillar of a God-Centered Life—The Importance of God and Keeping Him as Your Focus—is not simply a theological point. It is the anchor for every other pillar. It is the difference between walking in the light or stumbling in the dark.

Today, let us resolve to make better decisions, not based on what we want or what is convenient, but based on Who God is. Let our lives declare daily, “You alone are my God.”

With a heart devoted to Him alone,
Brother Jesse
