Dawn is one of my favorite times of the day. As the sun gently nudges the edge of the horizon, the muted darkness hesitatingly relinquishes its hold on the sky and pales. Suddenly a vivid array of violet, blues, and pinks begin to form as the sun continues its ascent and the sky bursts forth in celebration of the new day.
This brand new day is as yet unblemished by negative human
behavior. For a brief moment, in the peace and silence at the beginning of this fresh start, a day full of promise awaits. What will you do with it?
Before rushing to begin that huge list of things you have to do today, stop for just a moment to decide Who you will take with you as you journey through this day.
Joshua 24:15 “But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your forefathers served beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
Why choose to serve the Lord? He alone has made provision for us to live in right standing with Him in this life so that we can spend all of eternity with Him in heaven. He has proven Himself faithful in His promises to provide all that we need
in our day-to-day living, not just spiritual, but also emotional, physical, and financial. He also longs to give us the desires of our heart. What more could we want than all of this?
Hebrews 3:15 “As has just been said: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.””
To not make a concious decision is, by default, a choice to reject Him and the life of promise He wants to give you.
He’s waiting for you. The decision is yours. What choice will you make?
