"So I told them, 'Whoever is wearing gold, take it off.' They gave it to me, and I threw it into the fire, and this calf came out." Moses saw that the people were running wild because Aaron had lost control—to the secret delight of their foes." Exodus 32:24-25
Whom do you place your trust in? Is it God or one of God's leaders? The people looked for Moses and then Aaron, they did not look for God, they sought their own. Sin corrupts, even Aaron told a lie in making the golden calf. Our faith is not to be placed upon man only on the Triune God. He will never lead you astray. Are you mad at some church leader, is this person causing you to stray from God. You have made your own idol, for they are greater than God. This pleases the same foes Moses and Aaron had. God is to be our focus, our praise and worship is on God not a human. The devil deceives, he twists the truth and seeks your ruin, do not place hope on false idols. You are loved by God, your Creator.
What is God saying to me: focus on me, I will see you through this, you are not alone I am with you.
Dear Father, we can place our hope upon man only to be let down. Remind us that we are created by You, it is You that gives us hope and joy of heart. Prayers for those that are being misguided by the devil. Prayers for those whom anger is eating at them, may they be released from this bondage, may this hate be replaced with Love. Help us see Christ in the other as we live this day with You being our focus. Thank You Father for walking with me each day and calling me to the mountain. In Jesus name, Amen.
Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows, pray for us.
