...at this very moment, and for as long as this world endures, everybody inhabiting it is bowing down and serving something or someone - an artifact, a person, an institution, an idea, a spirit, or God through Christ. Everyone is being shaped thereby and is growing up toward some measure of fullness, whether of righteousness or of evil...
The obvious resulting question is; Whom or what do we worship? That question after all, points exactly to what makes sin sin, doesn't it? For in that very moment when I choose to put my will over God's will - when I submit to the authority of my desire, or to the object of my desire, rather than the authority of Christ; I have indeed worshiped. And if I have not worshiped Christ, I have committed idolatry.
May God give me the grace to choose to worship Christ day by day, choice by choice, moment by moment.
soli deo gloria
