Choose this day whom you will serve.
I remember a story of a mother who took her three children into the ice cream parlor for an ice
cream cone. The man behind the counter asked, "Chocolate or vanilla?" The mother asked, "Why
don't you have more flavors?" "Lady," he answered, "if you only knew how much time it takes
some people to make up their minds between chocolate and vanilla, you'd never have another
flavor!"
Many make the decision to follow Christ a hard one. Making the decision is not hard, but
following Christ everyday will certainly be filled with many opportunities and challenges.
Make the decision. Take the challenge. Choose to follow Christ throughout this day moment by
moment.
(Joshua 24:15
NRSV)
"If any want to become my followers..." There it is. No force is involved, simply a decision.
Dear God, open my heart and mind to your spirit, so that I may follow your Son step by step.
Amen.
