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.  Be careful because evil is like a roaring lion seeking whom he can devour every day.  Serve the Lord with gladness and walk in His ways.  Let the Lord guide you each day.  Spend time with Him and seek His direction.

Serve the LORD alone. 15 But if you refuse to serve the LORD, then choose today whom you will serve. Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates? 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 .”
