Consuming Goodness: YOUR Choices

Consuming Goodness: YOUR Choices

Live an ANTI-AGING lifestyle & restore your youth. Outward appearances are transformed with consuming goodness. 

What do YOU choose?

The choices we make everyday creates who we are. It shows our values to the world around us. The Hebrew verb "choose" (בָּחַר, bachar) implies a deliberate and conscious decision. Choosing goodness brings Love into your environment, both toward yourself and others.

When you make good choices aligned to good values, you will naturally be rewarded with peace, love, and life. But, when you choose to feed pride, judge others, and believe falsehoods about yourself and others, death hovers over your mind, body and heart. This leads to self-abuse. Maybe drinking alcohol excessively or eating poorly to try to feel better. But you can't alleviate your inner guilt and shame by feeding on more hate, judgment and anger. Only God's Love can take it away.

When you acknowledge God's Love, are not given over to a depraved mind. Whereas, people without God's Love serve their depraved minds, acting evil. Just turn on the TV News or scroll through social media feeds to see examples of those who do not acknowledge God. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, and maliciousness. They are gossips, slanderers, haters, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless and angry. Their depraved minds choose evil, choose death Rom. 6:23

It's hard to refute that God exists. Go whale watching or a 3D ultrasound of an unborn human, maybe listen to testimonies of supernatural healing or near-death experiences. Then, pass by all manner of churches on your way to the grocery store. Those who do not care about God will eventually do evil things and will affirm others who do evil things too. Rejecting God leads to death, not life. 

Yet, we have all been there! I've been angry and hate filled. I thought about depraved things, spoke of evil and did evil. It's not hidden. Everyone around me saw it. It made me ugly, inside and out. I didn't care for my body, consuming excessive food and drinks. I couldn't love myself or anyone else in my evil condition. But God is merciful. I asked Him to forgive me. I chose to stop feeding on anger, alcohol, and evil. I chose to acknowledge God's Love. I chose not to hang around people who didn't acknowledge God and my life became much happier Rom. 1:28. My outward appearances began to transform with every good choice and my youth was restored.

Choose Love

It's easy to judge others and even yourself. But, with God's Love, you can let go and let God help you love yourself, as yourself Gal. 5:14™. He is the only one who fill our emptiness with true Love for ourselves. Then, and only then, can we love our neighbor as ourselves. Trying to love yourself without God only results in a haute, self-serving pride. The "look at me" attitude. The "I'm better than you" look, seeking external validation and self-significance at everyone else's expense. Trying to love others without God turns into a conditional trading game that eventually falls apart in a wounded heart.

The Bible teaches that Love does not discriminate based on skin color or outward appearances. It emphasizes loving people without conditions. Understanding their values through their character and actions, not on their physical attributes. Unconditional love can be difficult because it requires loving others as God loves them. Loving the person, not their evils. Speaking the Truth in Love to them even when they are rude or inconsiderate, even when they are enemies Matt 5:44

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. 1 Cor. 13:4-8

Only God's Love through us is unconditional. Meaning, we can function in Love towards ourselves and others with real compassion that is not earned. Love is not 'whatever you feel' at the moment. Love is not a subjective emotion. Love is Truth, and Truth is not based in our human feelings. It's not 'your truth' that can change with hormones, circumstances, and thoughts. Love and Truth is grounded in a deeper substance than fleeting human thoughts and emotions. 

Love is not 'Pride' festivals or rainbow flag Matt 19:4. Love is not trading good deeds back and forth with someone trying to one-up them 1 John 4:10. Love is not men having sex with men Lev 18:22, or women having sex with women Rom. 1:26. Love is not reducing the world population Gen. 9:7. Love is not based on skin color John 7:24. Love is not abortion Jer 1:5. Love is not open borders Neh 2:17. Love is not affirming that a person is not the gender God gave them at birth Mark 10:6.  

Love and Truth is only found in the words of God. The words given to us by the One, universal and living God. The God found in The Bible, not any other book or practice. If you seek elsewhere and find a 'god' you are accessing demons pretending to be God. Only by studying The Bible and knowing God's words will you know Truth and Love. Only God can provide the Truth of Love; otherwise, it's fake love or a 'feel good' practice that results in evil. If the Bible says it, it's Truth and it will result in Love. God affirms His Truth, not 'your truth'. If everyone believed in their own 'truth', there would be no shared understanding of what's real or valid, leading to complete confusion and eventually conflict.

Choose Peace

The peace of God transcends all understanding and guards your hearts and your minds Phil. 4:7

When chaos looms, peace can seem far away but its not. It's inside of you and when you find it, it will find you back. It's contagious. It's rest. It's a deep inner peace that comes from God, even in the storms of life. It’s so profound that it cannot be fully comprehended by human reasoning alone.

Even in utter chaos, this peace can remain present. Inner, Spirit-led peace through God transcends our human ability to fully understand or explain it. It's not a fleeting 'feel good' feeling. It's a constant, ever-present presence you can remain in day after day after day. By casting our anxieties on God through trustful prayer and persistent faith, we can experience this supernatural peace in our minds, in our bodies and in our hearts 1 Pet. 5:7.

Choose Life

God has set before you life and death, blessings and curses; now choose life and goodness so that you and your children may live Deut. 30:19

The command to "choose life" is so simple and so profound, yet many people don't care about it or they take it for granted. By choosing God's Love, choosing God's Truth, and choosing His Goodness, we are better positioned to choose Life over Death, faith over fear, and peace over chaos.

Life is not an inconvenience. It's a gift everyday, even when there's one body with two lives - one in the womb and one out. If that is not how you feel or believe, check your values and your priorities. Choices based solely on feelings are bad choices you will likely regret. It is well-known, trusted advice when a friend (or a lawyer) tells you not to make decisions when you're upset, especially life altering decisions. 

Life is about more than money. Life is about more than success. Life is about more than climbing the corporate ladder. It's eternal. It's all that's left when death is at the doorstep. God affirms the value of every human life—from children in the womb to the elderly in a nursing home. God affirms Life, not your bank account.

Choosing Goodness - What is "good"?

You can't grit your teeth and be "good" - what is "good"? You are no more evil and no more good than the person sitting next to you. Being "good" is being kind, compassionate, and having a positive impact on others and the world around you. Being "good" is also about being present, calm, and connected to yourself and others, rather than being tense or angry. We are all capable of gritting our teeth to be 'good' or letting in 'evil' and lashing out. Goodness is defined and shaped through our actions and choices in alignment with God, rather than in alignment with ourselves. It's only when we make choices in alignment with God's Love that true goodness can be in us and can shine through us Rom 3:11.

Those led by the Spirit of God are those who actively seek and follow God's guidance. We allow the Holy Spirit to influence our thoughts, decisions, and actions. This leads to a deeper relationship with God and a sense of belonging as a child of God. Life is about more than just physical needs and material possessions. It’s about spiritual growth, relationships, and a focus on God's kingdom over worldly pursuits. It about Love. It's about choosing Life. It's about choosing goodness. It's about consuming goodness.
