See that no one is sexually immoral, or is godless like Esau, who for a single meal sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son. 17 Afterward, as you know, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. Even though he sought the blessing with tears, he could not change what he had done.(Hebrews 12:16-17)
Forgiveness is a wonderful thing and where would any of us be without this gift from God? However, choosing not to sin is even better and without the
consequences of sin, life would be so much better! Just imagine living out God's
perfect plan for our lives and receiving all of the blessings He has in store for each of us!
Young people especially, please heed the advice of those of us who have made the very mistakes you are planning to undertake: choosing God's will is always best. His ways are far above our ways. Listen to wise counsel. It is better to
not sin than to want to experience it for yourself!
Esau lost his birthright for a simple bowl of soup! How many of us lose God's blessings because of our appetites?
Sinful appetites or a simple choice . . .
Choices we make today will shape our tomorrows to come!
