Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love You and thank You, praise and give You all the honor and glory for this new day to live and breathe. Father God, I lift my hands to You not only for Your embrace, but for to open my lungs for fresh new clean air that You provide in prayer, communication and free bodily function. I pray for all those who need your healing touch, or just need to break out of the chains that bind them from your freedom in Jesus Precious Name. What is a idol? Do You think You know? For idols are unrecognized as such, and never seen for what they are. That is the only power that they have. Their purpose is a controversial principle, and they are feared or worshipped, both, because you do not know what they are for, and why they have been made. An idol is and image of your sister or brother that you would value more than God. Idols are made that they may be replaced, no matter what their form. And it is this that never is perceived and recognized.  Be it a body, or a place, a situation, a thing or a circumstance, and object owned or wanted, or a right demanded or achieved, it is the same. No one believes in idols who has not enslaved themselves to littleness and loss. And thus must search beyond his or her little self for strength to raise his or her head, and stand apart from all the misery the world reflects. This is the penalty for looking not within for certainty, tranquility, and quiet calm that liberates you from the world, and lets you stand apart, in quiet and peace. Father God, help me to lift my heart and hands to you in every situation that comes my way, instead of turning to idols first, let me turn to You in Jesus Precious Name. Amen

Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to the LORD. Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto God in the heavens. Lamentations 3:40-41
