And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar. Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other. Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent even as far as Sodom.

II. OUR CHOICES
II. OUR CHOICES
WHAT CHOICES DO WE MAKE THAT GREATLY AFFECT OUR LIVES?
CHOOSING YOUR FRIENDS
A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity.
The righteous should choose his friends carefully,
For the way of the wicked leads them astray.
Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”
HOW CAN WE MORE LIKELY MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE?
ASK GOD FOR WISDOM
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
SEEK ADVICE FROM OTHERS
Where there is no counsel, the people fall;
But in the multitude of counselors there is safety.
The way of a fool is right in his own eyes,
But he who heeds counsel is wise.
WHATEVER YOU DO, DO IT FOR THE LORD’S SAKE
Commit your way to the Lord,
Trust also in Him,
And He shall bring it to pass.
He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light,
And your justice as the noonday.
Instead you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that.”
