A challenging passage. Where do I miss Jesus in my life because I get caught up in other things? When the pressure is on, do I run to Jesus, or do I invest in idols? Idol = a gift from God that I have made into a god! But also a hugely encouraging passage. God wants to speak through us! Jesus makes a way for us through the cross. God does not challenge our idols because he is insecure, but because he knows that they are made of straw. Put your trust in the God who laid his life down for you!
