Today’s devotion got me thinking about how I live my life. We see in ez 23 how horrible the picture is of the adulterers. At first I claim, how horrid those people are to commit such acts before God! But then, I do the very same thing in God’s eyes. My desires are not always for building God’s glory, but for my own. I build up an Idol and desire other things than God himself. Although God has send his son for us and shows us that Jesus now dwells within us, I run to other things to bring temporary joy in my life; pride, popularity, laziness, just to name a few. This chapter was a good reminder for me to see that the life here is temporary, as well as its possessions. I need to be building up treasures to store in heaven and not on this temporary placement. It is so hard to see this world as temporary at times, with all its “gifts” that it offers. But we need to realize what God has done for us, out of pure grace and mercy! How can I run to other things of this world when my God is willing to give me everything for me. Let us find rest in God and see that only God will give us true joy and everlasting enjoyment.
