In our world of sadness and chaos we wonder what we need to do to survive in this not so friendly world. I heard a powerful message at church yesterday about idolatry.
When we think of it, many of the dictators of this world live off of idolatry.
Think about the Taliban in Afghanistan. They have only one thing on their minds, and that is people worship them or they die.

The Bible has a story about a city that turned to idols instead of God. God punished them by destroying the whole city. There was nothing left there but dried bones.
The people who lived through this cried for help, and God said they need to repent to receive His grace.
Here is a definition of idolatry:
It takes place when we exchange God’s self revelations and replace them with our own ideas of who we think God is or should be.
The essence of idolatry is thinking thoughts about God that is unworthy of Him.

Have our bones dried up because we worship idols like, cell phones, TV, our new car, or boat?
Take inventory of your live and see if you have placed something in front of God that you idolize.
Some thoughts:
God can be trusted.
God’s promises are sure.
God loves you just the way you are.

Remember:
You are never alone.
You are never forsaken.
You are never unloved.
And above all…never, ever, give up!
