Psalm 119:30 --- 30 I have chosen the faithful way; I have placed Your ordinances before me.
I Choose You and Your Ways, Lord!
Not much to be added to today's verse other than a few questions to ponder.
Which way have you chosen today?
As I thought about this and prayed, the verses below came to mind.
Joshua 24:14-15 --- 14 “Now, therefore, fear the Lord and serve Him in sincerity and in truth; remove the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the [Euphrates] River and in Egypt, and serve the Lord. 15 If it is unacceptable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you live; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
I have always loved these verses from Joshua because it's direct and straight forward. No nonsense. Stop sitting on the fence and make a choice. You're going to serve someone or something in life. Just like Ash Ketchum chose Pikachu, you've got a choice to make. If you don't find it acceptable to follow Jesus, choose this day whom you will serve. Will you serve the gods of this world, serve yourself, serve nothing, serve money, serve a spouse, serve work, etc… Only you get to make that decision.
As for me and my house we will serve the Lord and follow Jesus Christ.
