Little gods that we give our service to
That we bow down before and say
"Well we've got to do this, because this is what's going to make our life good
I've got to have this, because this is what I need
To really live the best life and to avoid disasters and problems."
We have our own little ways of things that we do here
That we're willing to sacrifice for, because, we think if we give ourselves to thеse things
It's gonna go great for us
Things like, addiction, drugs, alcohol, sеx
Pornography is a big one in our world today
There are things that we do
That when the admiration lovers
Who get very taken up with, our pride, our looks, our beauty, our fitness
Ways that we appear, make [?] absorb us
Take our time, take our energy
Leisure is a big temptation in our culture
The more and better kinds of leisure opportunities we have, the better life we think we're gonna have
Think about the false gods, the idols, that you worship in your own life
Think about where you put your money
Where you put your time, and where you spend a lot of your thoughts
And you could discover, that, false gods and idols, are not simply, simply, something of the past
And we may not have alters, burn incense, and have the most statues set up in these states
But we all have ways in which, we spend our time, our money, our resources on things that we think are going to satisfy us and brings us the fullness of life
But really, they are only false gods
And may for a time bring us some sense of joy or happiness
But ultimately, they will fade
