This is my command—
be strong and courageous!
Do not be afraid or discouraged.
For the LORD your God is with you
wherever you go.
Joshua 1:9
Today I have given you the choice
between life and death,
between blessings and curses.
Now I call on heaven and earth
to witness the choice you make.
Oh, that you could choose life,
so that you and your descendants
might live!
You can make this choice
by loving the LORD your God,
obeying him,
and committing yourself firmly to him.
This is the key to your life…
Deuteronomy 30:19-20
