—Deuteronomy 6:4-9
by: Trisha Gerstel.
The world tells us that security and happiness come from a big bank account, the right car, getting a bunch of “likes” on Facebook, being successful in our careers, having the right clothes, staying in perfect shape, eliminating wrinkles, and on, and on, and on. Take a moment to contemplate the chaos that is created by these false idols—what they have done in your own life in the past. I am sure that, like me, doing this will fill you with a tremendous amount of joy and gratitude that you have the privilege of knowing the true God, the only One who can truly bring us peace.
