DAILY READINGS: 1 Chronicles 6:1-81; Ezekiel 8:1-9:11; John 2:1-22
But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord. Joshua 24:15
The life of Joshua was a life of service. In the first part of his life, he served Pharaoh making bricks in Egypt as a slave. For the next 40 years he served as an assistant to Moses in the wilderness wanderings. In the last part of his life, he served the people of God in the promised land. However, his Master, while on earth, in the shadow of earthly leaders, was God. May we serve Him faithfully as well. —Sam Thorpe Jr.
O Master, let me walk with Thee,
In lowly paths of service free;
Tell me Thy secret; help me bear,
The strain of toil, the fret of care. —W. Gladden
