Value
Whatever you value is what you worship. If
you value riches and financial security, the tendency is to worship money
(value money beyond it’s worth). If you value appearance, you’re going to do
everything possible to make yourself look good, beyond what is beneficial. You
worship self. When we value these
things beyond their worth, beyond what is beneficial, beyond what is useful, we
are left unsatisfied. We constantly look for something to fill a void in our lives.
Being unsatisfied in life is hard! I’ve seen a life where value is placed on
the wrong things to be one filled with stress, anger, hurt, sometimes even
hatred. But a life where what we value most is Christ and His kingdom? That’s a
life of joy! Not an easy life by any means, but a joy filled life, a content
life, a good life.
