Tonight in our nightly reading, we were taken to Exodus 34, to the account of Aaron making the golden calf for the Israelites when they asked. They felt left alone by Moses, abandoned, and decided they needed something to worship & take Gods place, so they demanded Aaron make them the image of the calf. Sounds pure right? Wrong!!! Read the Ten Commandments: you shall have no other gods before me. The Israelites felt abandoned, and it's easy for us to feel that way too. Like God has left us, like He doesn't care anymore, when really it's our fault. God never leaves us, WE leave Him. We neglect reading our bibles, we neglect to pray, then we blame God for "leaving us" and we start having other idols. Not necessarily golden calves, but money, sex, video games, cars, women/men, music, ANYTHING that takes our attention more than God.
Read that chapter in Exodus, that account, and see how it applies in your life. Remember, God never leaves us alone, we're the ones who leave. Don't make yourself an idol, see that God IS enough.
God bless and blog soon
