Will Be Like Them

Psalms 115:2-8 NIV
Why do the nations say,
“Where is their God?”
3 Our God is in heaven;
he does whatever pleases him.
4 But their idols are silver and gold,
made by human hands.
5 They have mouths, but cannot speak,
eyes, but cannot see.
6 They have ears, but cannot hear,
noses, but cannot smell.
7 They have hands, but cannot feel,
feet, but cannot walk,
nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
8 Those who make them will be like them,
and so will all who trust in them.

We are created by God for for worship and must worship something. Worshipping anything other than God is idolatry. It could be self, or another, or some object which hijacks our desire for God.

When we do so we are in danger of becoming like those lifeless things we pursue.
