"In that day people will throw away
to the moles and bats
their idols of silver and idols of gold,
which they made to worship. They will flee to caverns in the rocks
and to the overhanging crags
from the fearful presence of the Lord
and the splendor of his majesty,
when he rises to shake the earth. Stop trusting in mere humans,
who have but a breath in their nostrils.
Why hold them in esteem?"
these verses talk about how the people of Israel and Juda would view their idols when the day of judgement came. Here it says that they will throw them away and hide from God's presence.
When I read this I began to think about what I put before God as an Idol. I would have to say that the thing I idolize most is music. I'm very proud of my musical abilities and i love listening to different types of music (I'm currently listening to Choir pieces lol). but the thing to remember is that one day my musical abilities wonnt matter. all that will matter is my relationship with God.
I dont want to toss my talents aside to hide from the presence of God. I want to toss my talents at His feet to honor Him instead.
g'night...
