WHO AM I SERVING?
Today's reading: 1 Kings 14-18

"Then Elijah stood in front of them and said, How long are you going to waver between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him! But the people were completely silent." 1 Kings 18:21 NLT

It's an easy choice, you say.

Of course God, is God, and you will serve Him, you proudly proclaim.

There is no one else for you, you admit.

But if I were to word it this way...

If the Lord is God, then follow him! But if ______ is your god, then follow him!

What's filling in the blank in your life/heart/mind?

We all have something that pushes God out of His rightful position and into a secondary spot.

Is it control? Is it admiration from others? Is it security in the form of what you have or what you have attained in life? Is it a drug of choice-illegal, prescription or easily prepared at your kitchen counter? Is it an old habit that you cannot break?

I'm thinking this morning about what is in my 'blank'.

Are you now thinking about yours?
