What is yours? Where is yours?
On the way to work there is a huge temple being built. It stood out in the rain and darkness as I drove to work this morning. It is in the process of being built. But this isn't an ordinary church-it is a Hindu one.
This building of it makes me yell-don't! It's a waste of time. God won't live in there. It is just stone. Your decorations above the door to ward off spirits don't work. There is a better way....
Then I am reminded again of our study that we did earlier. IDOLS. Is my "building" any better than theirs? different maybe in that theirs has real stone, but how about my heart? Is there stone there? Does God live in my temple? What do I use to "fight off his attacks" Just "hang" something up and hope it works.
The sign out front said "Temple entrance" Who do you let into the entrance of your temple?
Who is worshiped in yours? And whose do you go to?
One thing I ask of the LORD, this is what I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze upon the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. Psalm 27:4

Wow!Good post Mel
Melissa (AKA Biker Babe),
So glad you started blogging. Have gotten a lot out of your posts. The more we study, the more we see how much we need to change. But I don't want to quit studying because being in the Word has so increased my faith. Guess the only alternative left is to CHANGE.
Love, LINDA
Love the new look Mel.
P.S. why is there a trash can under my post?
Great questions. Thanks for making me think.
