Something to Choose

From: Messages of God's Love: 1938

Joshua said to the men and women, boys and girls of Israel: “Choose you this day whom you will serve.” How could they serve the Lord who lives above, and they on the earth? By doing as He had told them.

The Lord speaks to our hearts now by those and other words, for us to choose also. He has done for us even more for them, because since then, the Lord Jesus came to be the Saviour of the world. All who believe in Him can serve Him, if they remember His Words.

This was Joshua’s good choice: “As for me and my house (that meant all he had) we will serve the Lord.” Josh. 24:13¹³And I have given you a land for which ye did not labor, and cities which ye built not, and ye dwell in them; of the vineyards and oliveyards which ye planted not do ye eat. (Joshua 24:13).

“Praise the Saviour, ye who know Him!

Who can tell how much we owe Him?

Gladly let us render to Him

All we have and are.”

“If any man serve Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there shall also My servant be: if any man serve Me, him will My Father honor.” John 12:26²⁶If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honor. (John 12:26).
