Not So Idle Thoughts About Idolatry

Idolatry is not limited to worshiping false gods—it can happen whenever you allow a good thing like work, money, recreation, or success to take the place in your heart that belongs to God alone. You are called to examine your priorities carefully and flee from anything that begins to control your loyalty, trust, or devotion. When temptation comes, remember that God is faithful and will provide a way for you to remain faithful to Him. Hold His blessings with gratitude, but give your deepest love, trust, and worship to God alone.
