Either God is God, or He's Not!

Father, You are indeed the One and Only true God!  You made heaven and earth and everything in it!  You are the Creator, and You have dominion over everything in heaven and on earth.  What You have made is beyond our understanding and is vast beyond measure.  We have yet to reach the furthest reaches of outer space, to discover every creature hidden in the rainforests of the world, to delve into the deepest parts of the oceans, or to find the smallest particle, for there is always something smaller that provides the make-up of the smallest of the smallest of the smallest!  Unfathomable!

Father, You gave to Jesus all authority in heaven and on earth.  Jesus is above all!  He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords!  Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!

Heavenly Father, Your name is to be revered, for you are holy, set apart from all the rest.  You are in heaven.  Yes, You are in heaven!  Let Your kingdom come, and let Your will be done, here on earth, right now, in and through us, just as it is done in heaven.  Give us what we need for today.  Forgive us of our sins, all wrongdoing, just as we forgive all those who sin against us.  Do not let us fall into temptation, but deliver us from evil, all day everyday, because the kingdom, and the power, and the glory are Yours, forever and ever, and ever, and ever!!!

You are God!  Medicine is not!
You are God!  Money is not!
You are God!  Our children are not!
You are God!  Our husbands are not!
You are God!  Our families are not!
You are God!  Education is not!
You are God!  Our identity, our image, is not!
You are God!  Our bodies are not!
You are God!  Our government is not!
You are God!  Our laws are not!
You are God!  Our friends are not!
You are God!  Our media (TV, cable/satellite, computers, phones, etc.) are not!
You are God!  Our churches are not!
You are God!  Our military is not!
You are God!  Our leaders are not!
You are God!  You are God alone!

God, forbid that we should ever make anything, ANYTHING, more important in our own hearts that we would fail to obey Your command to Love You and Love Others as You have loved us!  We are to keep ourselves from idols!  We are to have a faithful relationship with You alone!  Our genuine relationship with You, Father, will lead us to see You as You are.  Then, we will be able to see others as You see them.  Amen!
