It's Up to You

There was once a man who seemed to have the answer to almost any question that you asked him. One day some young boys decided to give him a trick question. One boy said that he would catch a bird and put it in his hand with his hand covering it. He would then ask the man if the bird is alive or dead. If the bird is alive he will crush it with his own hands and if it is dead he will allow it to fly away. All the boys were happy with this trick question.

They went up to the man with the bird. When the man saw how they were grinning he knew they were trying to trick him. The first boy with the bird went up to him and asked him if the bird in his hand was alive or dead.

The man paused for a moment and replied- 'it's in your hands'.

The moral of the story is that your life is in your hands. It's all up to you what you do with your life. Whether you serve God or serve the devil, whether you go to school, or drop out. Whether you be a success or a failure.

Remember it's all up to you but don't forget this.

Phillipians 4-13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
