Where do you place your cross?

Well, election day is just about upon us. Hopefully many thousands, even millions, of people will soon be going to the polls to cast their vote. Everyone will have their own reason to vote the way they do and by the end of the week we will have much better idea of the direction this nation is heading.
However our General Election is not the only election being held this week. There are other decisions being made which will have an even longer lasting significance than where we put a cross on Thursday and that is where we put a cross in our lives.
As Joshua and the people of Israel prepared to enter the promised land he asked the people a simple question: “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.” It is a decision we all must make. Are we going to serve God, put our faith in the cross, take up our cross and follow him, or are we going to go our own way following false gods or the desires of our heart. Where you put the cross in your life is the most important decision you will make. Where you put your cross in response is key to your future, your joy and your peace.
I would urge you, this week as you make an important decision regarding the direction of this country that you also make an important decision regarding the direction of your life.
As for me and my household, we will serve the Lord!
