Joshua 24:16-24
Pray/Think/Live
I can so relate to Israel in this passage. They're extremely passionate about worship God, saying they'll never forsake Him and worship other gods. But if you look at history (their future), they did not keep the promise. Time and again, they strayed off the path and then came back around. I can honestly say that I've done that before, being really close to God for a while and then let my relationship grow cold. I hate that can say that, too. I think we have to realize that it takes a conscious effort to stay close, we have to work at all the time (just a lot like other things in life). I feel like God has been working on me in several things and for all of it to really stick, I have to work at remaining close to Him. I'm willing to do the work.
