Choices

Deuteronomy 10:12, Revelation 3:16, Joshua 24:15

Who are you serving? Are you serving man or are you serving God? God would rather that we be either red hot or ice cold, not lukewarm. Revelation 3:16. Deuteronomy 10:12. People are looking for those who will stand up for righteousness and what they believe no matter what. We need to make choices today. God is a holy God. Joshua 24:15.

No turning back

Luke 9:62, Hebrews 11:1, Hebrews 11:6, Matthew 7:7

Luke 9:62. As a farmer, Uncle Angus understands the principal of ploughing: you need to plough straight and deep. A farmer needs by faith, to put their plough into the ground and go forward. If he starts to doubt and look back to check, it will throw his direction off and effect the whole field. Jesus is telling us not to keep turning back. Hebrews 11:1, 6. Matthew 7:7.

Mindful of us
