Final Decision 

Day by day the time slides by,
And we all have decisions to make,
Life's road is far from perfect,
Decisions may bring heartache.

However young or old we may be,
Our world is never free,
From the toils and woes of progress,
As right from wrong we try to see.

How do we find the right answers,
To all the questions we raise?,
It may not sound so simple,
As we try to shift our gaze.

When we start leaving self behind,
And call upon our Father above,
Soon we will begin to understand,
What Christians call 'real love'.

He has all the right answers,
As we get to know Him day by day,
And our decisions will be easier,
As He leads through mirey clay

How sweet will be the morning,
When we finally understand,
God is our gracious Master,
Who holds us in His loving hand.

And as the days slip slowly by,
And the years roll steadily away,
Our decisions will be ever better,
Because we took the time to pray.

When we give it all to the Lord,
We are finally set free,
We've made our final decision,
Now we can live peacefully!

-- Eva May Young

-- Jeremiah 33:3
   Call to Me and I will answer you, and will tell you 
   great and hidden things which you have not known.

-- Jeremiah 29:11-13
11 For I know the Plans I have for you," declares the LORD, 
    "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, 
     Plans to give you hope and a future.
12 Then you will call upon Me and Come and Pray to Me, 
     and I will Listen to you.
13 You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.

-- Psalms 145:18 
   The LORD is near to all who Call on Him, 
   To all who Call on Him in Truth.

-- Isaiah 55:6 
   Seek the LORD while He may be found; 
   Call on Him while He is near.

-- John 3:14-17
14 Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the desert, 
     so the Son of Man must be lifted up,
15 that everyone who Believes in Him may have eternal life.
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, 
     that whoever Believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, 
     but to save the world through Him.

-- Romans 10:9-10
9 That if you Confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and Believe in 
   your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, 
     and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved.

-- John 10:27-28
27 My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me.
28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; 
     no one can snatch them out of My hand.

-- John 14:26-27
26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, 
     will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
27 Peace I leave with you; My peace I give you. 
     I do not give to you as the world gives. 
    Do not let your Hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

-- John 15:5, 16
5 I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in Him,
   He will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you to go 
     and bear fruit -- fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you 
     whatever you ask in My name.

-- 2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 
13 But we ought always to thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, 
     because from the beginning God chose you to be saved through 
     the sanctifying work of the Spirit and through Belief in the Truth.
14 He called you to this through our gospel, that you might share in 
     the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

-- Romans 8:38-39
38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor 
     demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers,
39 neither Height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able 
     to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

-- John 6:66-69
66 From this time many of His disciples turned back 
     and no longer followed Him.
67 "You do not want to leave too, do you?" Jesus asked the Twelve.
68 Simon Peter answered Him, 
     "Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of Eternal Life.
69 We believe and know that you are the Holy One of God."

-- Deuteronomy 26:17-18 
17  You have declared this day that the LORD is your God and 
     that you will walk in His ways, that you will keep His decrees, 
     commands and laws, and that you will obey Him.
18 And the LORD has declared this day that you are His people, 
     His treasured possession as He promised, 
     and that you are to keep all His commands.

-- Joshua 24:15, 21-22 
15 But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for 
     yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers 
     served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you 
     are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."
21 But the people said to Joshua, "No! We will serve the LORD. 
22 "You are accountable for this decision," Joshua said. "You have chosen 
     to serve the LORD." "Yes," they replied, "we are accountable."

-- Psalms 119:30, 111, 173 
30 I have chosen the way of truth; I have set my Heart on Your laws.
111 Your statutes are my Heritage forever; They are the joy of my Heart.
173 Let Your hand become my Help, For I have chosen Your precepts.

-- Psalms 27:4 
   One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: 
   That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, 
   To gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek Him in His temple.

-- Psalms 23
1 The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, 
   He leads me beside quiet waters,
3 He restores my soul. 
   He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.
4 Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear 
   no evil, for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. 
   You anoint my Head with oil; my cup overflows.
6 Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, 
   and I will dwell in the house of the LORD forever.

-- Psalms 73:26 
   My Health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, 
   But God remains the strength of my Heart; He is mine forever.
