Consequence - Tumblr Posts
On the 1950’s game show “Truth or Consequences,” contestants were asked a question and then quickly reply. If they were wrong, there was a 'consequence' and in the comedy farce that was the hallmark of the show, if they mocked the host AND the question, there was an even bigger consequence to pay.
While life is not a game show, there are serious questions that we face on how we live and answer the questions of our lives daily by our thoughts, words, and deeds. However there are some that not only mock the questions but ridicule what is presented as 'truth' as outdated superstitious teachings that are not applicable to the times or their lives, and therefore do not believe that there are any consequences for their actions.
As that old TV program’s opening screen showed, 'Truth' was marked by a heavenly halo and 'Consequences' with a hellish trident — just as scripture tells us that we all shall “Reap What We Sow.” (see Galatians 6:8) If we sow good things in this life there is reward, but if we sow evil seeds and do what we think is right in OUR eyes, we will reap the OPPOSITE harvest.
Friend, as today’s verse implores us, Don’t mislead yourself into thinking that there really aren’t any consequences for not answering to truth, because there are. Life is a great journey but a serious one that requires how we answer the question of TRUTH, because the Bible says that Jesus Christ is THE TRUTH and He desires us out of His love for us not to have a Consequence! All you need to do is answer one question, and that is this...
Do you believe that Jesus is “The (only) WAY, The (only) TRUTH, and the (only way to eternal) LIFE?” (John 14:6) and as the verse concludes “No man cometh to the Father but by me.” (???)
There is a TRUTH and there is a CONSEQUENCE.
What is your answer?

Our lives are continually full of CHOICES, and the question is what kind of choices will we make?
Most choices are indeed neutral — like choosing to go buy groceries or go for a walk, but as today’s title says when we choose to do things that are contrary to the way God would want us to choose, then that choice always leads to sin.
This is one of the greatest challenges in life, because while we may mean in our heart to not do the wrong thing, our lower human, sinful nature often kicks in and we instead choose to go LEFT, when instead we should have gone RIGHT.
The simplicity of this verse from Psalm 25:12 is a reminder that God is always there to show us the way, and when we heed His direction and not our own, we can always be assured that we will not cross onto the tracks of danger.
As the psalmist said — God Will ALWAYS Show You The Way You Should Choose! Choose His Path, and you will never make a wrong turn.

You're the colour, You're the movement and the spin. (Never) Could it stay with me the whole day long? Fail with consequence, lose with eloquence And smile. I'm not in this movie I'm not in this song. Never Leave me paralyzed, love. Leave me hypnotized, love....
