STAY
Stay with the Lord. Claim your place. Ask Jesus to forgive your sin and cleanse you from unrighteousness. Never evaluate where you are now against where you come from.

ATTENTION
We need to pay attention to the way we live. As we read God’s Word we need to make sure that our lifestyle is not in conflict with the way that the Lord says we should live.

Spend time with Him and seek His direction.

Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live? But as for me and my family, we will serve the LORD .”

We choose. We choose salvation. We choose the lifestyle we will lead. Life is a choice. I will serve the Lord. I choose Jesus. Through all of life’s ups and downs I choose the Lord.
