"As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord"
Joshua 24:15
In the book of Joshua, 24:15, it is said, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." We read earlier in this passage that you should "throw away the Gods your forefathers worshiped and serve the Lord." In current translation, this means, more or less, you can choose to serve any God, but the right one to serve is our Lord. This is quite relatable to our life and times. We can choose to idolize and serve anyone or anything. But the right thing to do is to serve the Lord.
One question: How can we keep this in perspective? Think of your ancestors, and your family, just like this passage states. Our parents raised us to believe in God and in the Church for a reason. It’s the right thing to do. Their parents raised them that way, and it has been this way for generations.
