In
an episode of my favorite television show, Touched by an Angel, when a newer angel was regretting having done something one way instead of another, a question was put to her by a more senior angel.
I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live: that thou mayest love the Lord thy God, and that thou mayest obey his voice, and that thou mayest cleave unto him: for he is thy life, and the length of thy days.
