...Idols
God's Creation is beautiful and Holy
It is the accuser's approach to make His Creation seem less
At times, we are tempted to approach His creation with selfish desire
Oh how our flesh desires
Idols...
Dressed falsely
Much like an attractive flower that we stop to smell, feel and admire
Keeping us from the Path
Keeping us from praising Him
Drawing our attention and energy to something that can not reciprocate life or eternity
Idols...
Much like a weed
Rooting in concrete blocks
Surfacing through cracks
Day by day, we walk by
The weed grows
and grows
Until one day it has overcome us
Its bigger than we thought it could become
and now it seems impossible to rid ourselves of the weed
How did this weed, at once so puny become so enclosing?
We walked the Path with wavering eyes
We walked the Path carelessly
We forgot to give Him praise
Idols can grab our lives and draw the love from us
thus our praise for Him
Idols can sneak into our lives and demand the love from us
thus our praise for Him
