As for me and my house!

                                                *We will serve the Lord always*
                                                        Joshua 24:15


Whom do you serve? is it tv money sports, friends and family or in today's time the computer or texting?
 Or maybe it is God. Many will say yes, I will serve the Lord but, that's all it turns out to be is empty words. Does the words from our mouth match up with our actions?

Do we make God such a part of our everyday lives that we start out in the mornings with inviting him to be involved in you whole day? Does your everyday life involve things that you would not want God to be a part of? Such as when your hanging out with friends and an occasional rude joke or profane word is said; do you walk away or ask them not to talk like that around you or do you go along with it and maybe laugh yourself saying it's only a joke?Would you act differently is Jesus were standing beside you in the flesh? What about when you are at work and something makes you angry or is stressful , do you spout a stream of curse words and not think twice about it or do you think Jesus is by my side he will help me through this?

Maybe you spend your time in front of the tv watching shows that are violent or the next thing to pornography; do you watch them and say , oh they are just shows they aren't real or do you turn the channel and avoid them? Maybe it's as simple as making a promise to someone and then not keeping it. Oh I'll do it later or they aren't really expecting me to do it. How can you serve God when you are serving the world and it's ways and thoughts and actions?

Are you really serving him today? Have you heard him speak to you and you say I will later Lord, or you just ignore it all together?  Have you had the chance to show someone else the Lord and you haven't because of fear of ridicule or rejection? Jesus doesn't ask of us anything that He wouldn't and hasn't experienced himself.

God wants us to make him part of our everyday lives  as if he were walking side by side with us in the flesh.
Are we going to put him on a shelf and only take him out on Sundays or when we need him for something, or are we going to make the choice to make him part of our everyday life; all day and night?
