Our Imperfect FamilySample

In Exodus 32, the Israelites created a golden calf as an idol to worship when they grew impatient waiting for Moses. This story illustrates how we can fall into idolizing our own expectations and images of perfection. Reflect today on the idols in your own life. These could be expectations of a perfect family, career, or life that distract you from God's plan. Identifying and deconstructing these idols allows you to focus on God's truth and the reality He has for you.

What idols have I created in my own life?
How have these idols impacted my relationship with God and others?
What steps can I take to deconstruct these idols?

Pray for the courage to identify and tear down idols in your life.

Ask for God's guidance in focusing on His truth over your own expectations.
