A Delicate Balance

Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.

(Psalm 40:4)

Lord, if only all the false gods that lure us were clearly labeled. We are introduced to wealth, physical perfection, and romance – and it isn’t until we realize that the pursuit of them is using up way too much of our resources that we have made these things our gods. Help us keep even good things in balance and never pursue anything with more fervor than we pursue our relationship with You.

Thank you for Your unconditional love. I praise you daily and pray others do the same.
