Bad good days

Well today was kind of a rough one.
I realized that I will definitely be dropping my earth science class,
and other things happened, but today was also a good day; in fact, today was also
an incredible day. I got a song that I've been trying to get down which I shall be posting :).

anyway
let me tell you what I've been reading.

Jeremiah!

I've made it to chapter ten and I realized something.

^1-5 Listen to the Message that God is sending your way, House of Israel. Listen most carefully:

   "Don't take the godless nations as your models.
   Don't be impressed by their glamour and glitz,
   no matter how much they're impressed.
The religion of these peoples
   is nothing but smoke.
An idol is nothing but a tree chopped down,
   then shaped by a woodsman's ax.
They trim it with tinsel and balls,
   use hammer and nails to keep it upright.
It's like a scarecrow in a cabbage patch—can't talk!
   Dead wood that has to be carried—can't walk!
Don't be impressed by such stuff.
   It's useless for either good or evil."

think about that . . 

the idols that we put in front of God, the one true God, are hopeless in themselves.

They rely on us. Isn't that the center of idolatry though. Us! I mean any statue

that is worshiped had to be built. The statue didn't command people to build it, people just built it.

Television, video games, facebook, money, and all the other man made idols we have are just that, man made. THEY CAN'T EVEN WALK OR TALK!!!! We can destroy them, so why give our lives away for them?

But God is eternal, all-powerful, righteous, and filling. He fills the hole in our hearts that can't be filled by anything temporary. We have an eternal brokenness that can only be fixed by an eternal God. He talks and when He does all of creation obeys His command! Creation worships Him day and night. The angels cry out HOLY HOLY HOLY! In the light of Him there's nothing else to be impressed by.

Wow. . GOD IS SO EPIC #understatement
