Choose Ye This Day

 When the Children of Israel crossed the Jordan and settled in Canaan, the temptation to worship idols would be ever with them. Joshua, their leader, knew all to well their propensity to drift away from Jehovah and compromise with paganism. This had been their history even through the wilderness journey after God had miraculously and graciously delivered them from Egypt. As Joshua prepared to die, he gathered the fickle nation together and exhorted them to be faithful. This would demand of them a firm decision. As we embark upon a new year, we would do well to make some decisions as well.
