v 10 tells us to "flee" from idolatry. We live in such an age and time where our own pleasures are the first and paramount thing in our lives. We are set in our minds to continually have and enjoy convienence rather than hardship, joy rather than pain and above all accumulate possessions. These can take the form of friends, acquaintances or "connections" a la Linkedn or "things" - clothes, cars, toys (electronics - i.e.) but rarely does it take the place of the things of God. Paul appeals to sensible people to be our own judges and uses the communion elements to bring us all back to Him.
Everytime we look for distractions rather than Him, we slip further into the world of idolatry rather than God's kingdom. May we and I see, hear, touch and go with His eyes, hands and ears and feet.
Praise for today: I praise Him for His everloving kindness and mercy!
