- IDOLS -

Ps 115:3-4, 8: "But our God is in heaven; He does whatever He pleases. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands… Those who make them are like them; so is everyone who trusts in them" (NKJV).

One of the problems with idols is their ability to draw us into a lifestyle devoted to their "worship." When we seek after a life that the world esteems, we become more and more like others following that idolatrous path.

Acquiring money, power, beauty or fame almost always requires that you become like those who already have those things. And, that means turning away from the path to Christ, because He does not esteem money, power, beauty or fame.

The psalmist recognized the power of idols to transform us. Christ made the same point when He said, "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matt 6:21). Your lifestyle is an example to your children of where your heart is.

Give your children an example of a lifestyle devoted to God, not the idols of this world.

1 Cor 4:3-4: "I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself... It is the Lord who judges me" (NIV).

The church at Corinth was puffed up with pride. They were a world center of commerce, arts and philosophy and they prided themselves for the things they had achieved and acquired. They compared themselves to each other and judged the results. Their pride led them to judge harshly and caused fighting and factions.

Paul answered their worldly pride with the spiritual perspective. He did not care to be successful in the eyes of the world. He did not even care to trust his own judgment of success. He surrendered everything to the court of Jesus Christ, and let Him be the judge. Are you judging or being judged according to the world's standards? Are you overly self-critical or self-congratulatory? Submit to God and remember only God sees your heart (1 Sam 16:7).

Live your life as if you are testifying in the court of Jesus. That is a model your kids need to see.
