Joshua 24:15
“But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve… But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD.”
Joshua’s words stand like a line drawn in the sand. Following God is not something we drift into. It is a choice we make with heart, will, and direction. I love that Joshua did not begin with the crowd. He began with himself. “As for me.” That is where every godly influence begins. Before I ask my family to walk with God, I must walk with Him first. Before I lead others, I must bow my own heart.
Our homes are shaped by daily choices, small obediences, quiet prayers, and steady example. A father, mother, grandfather, or friend who truly follows the Lord becomes a lamp in the house. Choose Him today. Then live that choice plainly, lovingly, and faithfully before those God has placed near you.
I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.
Suggested Prayer: Lord, help me choose You fully, follow You faithfully, and lead my family and friends by a life that honors Your name.
