For many of us, the road is a difficult one, but the path is always there for us to follow, no matter how many times we may fall.

But we can hold our spirits and our bodies so pure and high, we may cherish such thoughts and such ideals, and dream such dreams of lofty purpose, that we can determine and know what manner of men we will be, whenever and wherever the hour strikes and calls to noble action.

But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then 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.

The best relationships are between two people who care more about each other's good than their own momentary pleasure.

Sorry. I'm not, like, medieval torture expert guy.

Now fear the LORD and serve him with all faithfulness. Throw away the gods your ancestors worshiped beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD.

Any society that derives its power and authority from the will of man alone lives apart from God and will crumble in the end.
