Choose You This Day

"Choose you this day whom ye will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord" (Joshua 24:15).

Joshua and the children of Israel chose to serve God and made a covenant to obey Him. Each one of us has been given our individual agency and the choice is ours. Who will will serve? God or Mammon? It is impossible to serve both:

"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon" (Matt. 6:24).

Jesus Christ was our perfect example of obeying the Father. Christ chose to serve God in all things, even until the end when He said, "not my will, but thine, be done" (Luke 22:42). And then He performed the ultimate, eternal sacrifice: the Atonement.

Who do you serve now? Choose to serve God and live.
