Tommy was SO happy the day he received Jesus as his Savior from sin! To think! His sins were all forgiven, and he would one day have a forever home in Heaven! Tommy especially loved the promise of the Lord Jesus that He would never leave Tommy!

　　在Tommy接受主耶穌的那一天, 他非常非常高興。想想看, 他的罪得到赦免, 他在天上有一個永遠的家。最令Tommy 感動的是主耶穌的應許, 他永不離開Tommy!

　　Tommys Bible teacher had given him a card that said, PUT JESUS FIRST IN YOUR LIFE. The teacher said every day Tommy would have to choose to do that. In our Bible verse for today, Captain Joshua told the people of Israel about that kind of choice：　　Joshua 24：15 says, ? choose you this day whom you will serve; ?but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Everyone must make the choice of who they are going to serve. You cant really say, I wont choose. When you say you wont choose, you just made a choice NOT to serve the Lord! When you have a choice as to whether you will watch cartoons on tv or read your Bible and pray, which choice would show you are serving the Lord?

　　Tommy的圣經老師給了他一張卡片, 上面寫著：把耶穌放在你生活中的第一位。老師告訴Tommy, 在他生活中的每一天他都要選擇把耶穌放在生活中的第一位。我們今天的圣經經節是約書亞記24章15節：今日就可以選擇所要事奉的.至于我和我家，我們必定事奉耶和華。每一個人都要選擇所要事奉的。你不能說：那我不選擇, 行不行?可是, 當你說你不選擇的時候, 你已經作了一個不事奉主的決定。當你要選擇來看動畫片還是用這段時間來讀經禱告, 哪一個選擇在說明你事奉主呢?

　　If you have a choice to get up early and go to Sunday School and church on Sunday morning, or stay in bed and sleep, which choice would show you are serving the Lord?Your friends may be staying up late on Saturdays, making it hard for you to leave them, but if you are Gods child, serve the Lord, no matter what others do! Decide BEFORE Sunday that you are going to bed early on Saturday so you can get up Sunday to serve the Lord!

　　當你要選擇在星期天的早上早起去教會上主日學, 敬拜神, 還是在家里睡懶覺, 哪一個選擇在說明你事奉主呢?你的朋友也許星期六晚上玩到很晚, 這就給你增加了壓力。但如果你是神的孩子, 不管別人怎樣, 你都要來事奉神。 所以星期六晚上你要決定不管怎樣都要早點睡覺, 使你星期天能早點起來去事奉神。

　　Before Joshua had ever come into Canaan, he had determined he WOULD serve the Lord, no matter what anyone else in Israel did. Joshua had made that choice as a young man, and now as an old man, he was challenging the people of Israel to serve the Lord. Joshua knew there were many false gods, idols, all around the nation of Israel, and that the people of Israel would need to choose between them and the true and living God Who had made them and given them everything they needed.

　　約書亞在進迦南地之前就下定決心要事奉神, 不管別的以色列人怎樣。 在約書亞還是個年輕人的時候, 他就做了這個決定。現在, 他已經是個老人了。他還要挑戰以色列人來事奉神。約書亞知道在以色列人周圍有很多假神, 偶像, 以色列人需要選擇是事奉又真又活的神, 還是那些偶像。

　　If you are a child of God, Jesus has saved you from your sin and given you everything you need! What a wonderful Lord! Do you love your Lord?If so, you will choose to serve Him! Choosing to serve Him is really a choice you make every day, even every hour! Will you choose to serve the Lord with your time, your money, your friends, your talents?Many times Jesus tells us that if we really believe in Him, we will show it by choosing to serve Him. Serving the Lord Jesus is NOT always easy. Many times it means saying NO to things we want, or NO to things our friends want us to do, even NO to extra sleep when we need to read our Bible and pray. But the Lord Jesus loves us so much, and He has promised us a rich reward in Heaven someday for serving Him. As Gods child, you will never be truly happy until you are serving Him!

　　如果你是神的孩子, 耶穌已經把你從罪中拯救出來, 并賜給你所需要的一切。 他是多么奇妙的救主!你愛你的主嗎?如果你愛他, 你就要選擇來事奉他。這是一個每天, 甚至每小時都要做的選擇。你愿意選擇來用你的時間, 金錢, 朋友, 聰明才智來事奉主嗎?耶穌多次告訴我們, 當我們選擇來事奉他的時候, 就表明我們真的相信他。 事奉主并不是一件容易的事情。許多時候, 我們要對我們很想作的事情說不, 或對我們的朋友說不行甚至犧牲我們睡懶覺的時間來讀圣經禱告。主耶穌實在愛我們, 他應許我們如果事奉他, 有一天, 我們要得到他在天上為我們預備的獎賞。

　　If you are Gods child, serve the Lord Jesus, no matter what others do! From the time you wake in the morning til you lie down to sleep at night, do those things that please the Lord! its not easy to turn away from your friends, from tv, or from sleep, to serve the Lord! Sometimes its hard to read your Bible, pray, go to church, be a witness, and cheerfully keep Gods commandments. its not always easy to serve the Lord, but it will be worth it!

　　如果你是神的孩子, 不來事奉神你就不會有真正的滿足。所以不管別人怎樣, 神的孩子就是要事奉神!從你早晨醒來, 到你晚上睡下, 總要做討主喜悅的事情。拒絕你的朋友, 不看電視, 少睡覺, 而來事奉主, 并不是一件容易的事。有時, 讀經, 禱告, 去教會, 為主做見證, 遵守主的命令就更不容易。但是, 這一切都是值得的!

　　If you have never believed on the Lord Jesus, you cannot serve Him, because you dont even belong to His family! But Hes ready to make you His child today! Please go right now to ?How to Be a Child of God.

　　如果你還沒有相信主耶穌, 那你就不能來事奉他。因為你還不是神家里的人。 但今天, 神愿意你成為他的孩子!請你現在就去聽怎樣能成為神的孩子, 照著那里說的來做出決定。

　　Lets say that verse together again! Joshua 24：15 ? choose you this day whom you will serve; ?but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. Will you say that verse over and over til you know it by heart?Here is an old song that will help you as you serve the Lord Jesus!I have decided to follow Jesus! I have decided to follow Jesus!I have decided to follow Jesus, No turning back, no turning back!Though none go with me, I still will follow No turning back, no turning back!The world behind me, the cross before me, No turning back, no turning back!

　　讓我們再說一遍約書亞記24章15節：今日就可以選擇所要事奉的.至于我和我家, 我們必定事奉耶和華。 請用你的心去把這句話背下來。現在, 讓我們一起唱下面這首歌：我已經決定, 要跟隨耶穌, 我已經決定, 要跟隨耶穌!我已經決定, 要跟隨耶穌, 永不回頭, 永不回頭!雖無人同行, 我仍要跟隨, 雖無人同行, 我仍要跟隨, 雖無人同行, 我仍要跟隨, 永不回頭, 永不回頭!十架在前頭, 世界在背后, 十架在前頭, 世界在背后, 十架在前頭, 世界在背后, 永不回頭, 永不回頭!
