Me: I think for my decision, I am choosing ice cream.

Prodigal: That is a good decision but I was thinking something else.

I have made my choice forever

I will walk the narrow way,

‘Till with Christ I dwell forever

In the realms of endless day.

Take the world with its pleasures

They can never satisfy,

Give me Jesus my precious Savior

He will all my needs supply.

by Helena Steiner

1 John 2:15-17

Do not love the world or the thing in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world–the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions–is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
