Worship God

I Read: 2 Kings 17-18

18:27: " . . . they'll be eating their own turds and drinking their own pee . . . "

That's really in there. I'm not making it up.

I think chapter 17 of 2 Kings might be the longest chapter in the Bible devoted to one idea: "You shall not worship any other gods." It's a curious thing that God would be jealous of meaningless hunks of wood or metal, or whatever else we turn into our gods today. Worship God. It's at the same time a very simple command and a very complex idea. Our God knows who belongs to him, all of us, and he wants us there in his presnce every second of every minute of hour every of every day. That's a crazy thought. God. You. Me. Us? It's wild. But he meant it so much that it made his top 10. Pretty high up in that top 10 from what I hear. Must have a thing for us humans and our attention. Kinda makes you feel loved, don't it?
