DOES NOT LIKE TO SHARE

Today's reading: Isaiah 40-44

"I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not give my glory to anyone else. I will not share my praise with carved idols." Isaiah 42:8 NLT

This verse reminds me that I, too often, give God only joint custody of my heart.

I fail to give Him all of my affection, attention, talent or faith.

I place myself and other just as faulty idols in places where He deserve complete rein, full access and total control.

And He lets me. He's a gentleman like that.

But He also allows me to quickly find out that my idols fail, they are limited and they are lacking at best.

He wants all of me, warts and all--because He does not like to share!
