INTO LIFE

How could I ever turn back into my old ways? I dare not go back to death. You have called me out of death and you have called me into life. How could I ever go back? How can anyone who has tasted our precious Lord's goodness and grace ever fall back into their old ways? I've tasted your goodness, and I have seen your power throughout the universe and most amazingly in my own changed life. You've given me a new heart that wants to follow you, which without, I would still be caught dead in my sins. You are beautiful! I have seen! I bow down to you, my God, knowing your character, knowing your loving kindness. Oh Lord! I will never fall back! Tis' like a salesman who learns a new technique which is flawless and perfect: will he go back and use his old sales tools even though his new ones work with much more conviction? Most assuredly he will not! Will a mountain climber climb back down the cliff even though he sees the very tip of the mountain? I should hope not! Like so,nor shall I ever go back to my old ways. Oh Lord! I will never turn back!
