Day 145 - Become More Like Him

Daily Reading:  Psalm 133-135

The idols of the nations are silver and gold,

made by the hands of men.

They have mouths, but cannot speak,

eyes, but they cannot see;

they have ears, but cannot hear,

nor is there breath in their mouths.

Those who make them will be like them,

and so will all who trust in them.

Psalm 135:15-18

Footnote:

Those who worshiped idols were as blind and insensitive as the idols themselves.  They couldn't see or hear what God had to say.  In subtle, imperceptible ways we become like the idols we worship.  If the true God is your God, you will become more like him as you worship him. 

What are your goals?  What takes priority in your life?  Choose carefully because you will take on the characteristics of whatever you worship.
