But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living.
But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.
Joshua 24:15 NIV
There comes a time when all must take a stand for their beliefs.
Some will identify with false gods and proudly so to their ultimate demise.
As for you and your house, who do you serve and how does that service take shape?
Leading your own tribe obedient to God is a formidable challenge largely dependent upon the character of the leader.
In the workplace, we know that employees don’t quit because of the organization but do quit because of the leader. That’s a lot of pressure.
Truth be told, not all members of my tribe were enamored with my leadership and consequently do not serve my God. It’s my biggest regret and my biggest hope that my current Godly leadership may someday repair.
Freedom of choice is divinely given everyone.
It will lead you to an empty destination or it will lead you to a fullness of passion and purpose.
Either way, leadership is the crucial directing element. And where mistakes have been made, God is the great fixer through Jesus.
