Joshua 24:15

Joshua 24:15 "Choose you this day whom you will serve....."

I have always read this verse in the context of the time period as "Choose you THIS DAY....." meaning a day when you make a decision from which there's no turning back. A day when you make a revolutionary choice to follow Christ so that your life and choices will never be the same.

I heard the verse a different way tonight, as "Choose you THIS day....." . It seems like an inconsequential difference, but it is true that on each individual day we must choose who we will serve. I wonder what kind of difference it would make each day if we made a conscious committed choice that THIS day we would serve the Lord.
