Celebrate Jesus!
Pastor Tom Joyce

“As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”
Joshua 24:15
Decisions can be hard at times; some as complex as buying a new home or as simple as choosing the flavor of ice cream which would best satisfy a sweet tooth. Unlike many other decisions, choosing to follow Jesus has eternal implications. Choosing to serve the Lord through church celebrates all the blessings you have received from God for the benefit of others. When Henry Ford began building cars, choosing the color was not a difficult decision; the first cars that rolled off the assembly line were only one color. Today, not only do cars come in different colors, so does most everything else. There are also many decisions that are made that are heart-breaking, nerve-racking, and just painful. When your choices in life are made in light of your commitment to “serve the Lord,” perspectives change and priorities are set that witness your faith in Jesus Christ and not just the flavor or color of the day. So the next time you are wrestling with making a decision, consider first how it impacts your commitment to serve and to love the Lord your God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength as well as loving your neighbor. “Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well,” (Matthew 6:33) including the wisdom to choose, for the glory of God.
