"At Horab they fashioned a calf, worshiped a metal statue. They exchanged their God for the image of a grass-eating bull."
- Psalms 106:19-20
I love that verse. It really puts things in perspective for me. It makes it seem so ridiculous that anybody would choose a metal cow over God. But that's what our sin is, right? We choose sin over God. We may not realize it at the time but when we step back and look at it, it's shocking. To see the temporary, silly things we choose over our God and all the wonderful things that He is. It's as ridiculous as worshiping a statue of a cow.
We have been given so much. Nothing is better or more satisfying than God. And He loves us! Our sin doesn't love us or make us better people. That power is God's.
