Misplaced Love

Read: Psalm 115

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands. —Psalm 115:4

Bible in a Year:
Joshua 4-6; Luke 1:1-20

Martin Lindstrom, an author and speaker, thinks that cellphones have become akin to a best friend for many owners. Lindstrom’s experiment using an MRI helped him discover why. When the subjects saw or heard their phone ringing, their brains fired off neurons in the area associated with feelings of love and compassion. Lindstrom said, “It was as if they were in the presence of a girlfriend, boyfriend, or family member.”

Many things vie for our affection and time and attention, and it seems we’re always needing to evaluate where we’re focusing our lives. Joshua told the people of Israel that they were to give their affection and worship to God alone (Josh. 24:14). This was significant in contrast to the idols worshiped by the nations around them. These idols were made of metal and were only the work of men’s hands (Ps. 115:4). They were totally powerless compared to the Lord. Therefore, God’s people were exhorted to find their security in Him and not in other gods (Judg. 10:13-16). Jesus reiterated this in His discussion of the commandments: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind” (Matt. 22:37).

The Lord alone is our help and shield (Ps. 115:9). May we reserve our worship for Him.

For Further Thought
What do our actions in the last few months reveal
about our affections? Is there any indication that we
have placed someone or something above God?

God is most worthy of our affections.

I awoke with a sore throat today, so I canceled all my lessons.

Don’t want to spread it around!

Happy Spring, Mayor.
Thank you for being here every morning with coffee served with ODB.

Hope you have some tea and honey in the pantry. Seems to help a little. Or maybe honey with a shot of brandy. :)

Hope you are feeling better soon. Take care of yourself.
