Book Overview
Excerpt
“I am the Lord your God, you shall have no false gods before me.”
For a moment, I want you to stop and think about this commandment. What does it mean to you? Does it mean you are required to live up to God’s standards? Does it mean He’s out to get you? Is it a challenge, a threat, or a comfort?
For me, for many years it was both a threat and a challenge. It wasn’t until recently that it became a great comfort. That moment changed my life. Literally. Let me explain.
In this life we all have two ways to judge or gain our worth and acceptance—either through our Source or through our resources. Put simply, God and only God is our Source. Everything and everyone else is a resource.
Resources are those things we use in our lives. Source is that which gives us life. Our trouble starts when we think of our resources as our source. For example, we make money our source—if we have a lot of money, we feel good, we believe we are accepted and loved. If we don’t have a lot of money, our concept of our self-worth plummets. But money is not our true source. It is only a resource. To make money our source is to disobey the first commandment. It is literally making something else our god.
