WORSHIP
WIKIpedia begins their definition of
worship, "Worship is an act of religious
devotion usually directed towards adeity." As Christians, we profess that their
is only one God and that He alone is
worthy to be worshiped. But often in our
practical lives that phrase "usuallydirected towards a deity," belies our
tendency to make many things but Godinto a deity by worshiping those other
things. Wealth, power, prestige, fame,
even family, and church, can distract usinto taking the worship due to the only
God and giving it to these other things:Re-making these other things into gods
and denying the reality that there is only
one God. Only you can determine to whoor what you give your worship. Be sure
that your life is spent in worshiping theOne and only True God.
