Woe to him who says to a piece of wood, 'Awake!' To the mute stone, 'Arise!' And that is your teacher? Behold, it is overlaid with gold and silver, and there is not breath at all inside it. Habakkuk 2:19
It is amazing to see how people used to worship a piece of wood or a stone and call it a "god." All the time believing that a piece of wood and rock could restore life. Our idols today are much fancier than rocks and sticks. Whether gold, silver, TV, or people, anything that comes between us and God, can quickly become our idols. Let's beware when we find ourselves depending on anything but God to provide. Wouldn't it be nice to see people lining up for God, like they are lining up for lottery tickets?
