Consider the Depths!

Ezekiel 14: 3
“Son of man, these men have taken their idols into their hearts...

The great poet/teacher/theologian, G.K. Chesterton is quoted as saying...
A man who will not believe in God, will believe in almost anything.

On my bicycle adventure on Saturday morning, I heard screams and loud cheering.
Weekends are now filled with loud cries at the local sports complexes.

I can’t help but wonder, if we truly believe in God anymore.
The church in the summer has gotten sparse of its people worshipping God.

Even the Elders during the time of Ezekiel, had taken idols into their hearts.
God answers people according to what they idolize. I wonder what I idolize?

If God would speak to Ezekiel in modern times, what would He have Ezekiel prophesize?
The only thing that can change our idolatry, is true repentance.

Worship is supposed to be the celebration of the covenant we have with the living God.
Have we gotten to the place where we have started to believe in anything?

The book of Malachi in chapter 1 says... “Those who offer God worthless gifts, despise the name of the Lord.

I need to go back and consider the depth of my worship, and if it’s sincere or not...
