Idols

"Thou shalt have no other gods before me."

What is the chief thing that most teenage girls talk about and think about today? Boys, without a doubt. God has been showing me many of the idols in my life, and one of them was boys, which is really stupid if you think about it.

Since then, my thought time invested in boys has been very scarce. I believe that if God has someone for me, he'll show me when the time is right. That's a comforting thought since I now know that I don't have to be constantly wondering "Is HE the one?" because I have confidence that God will reveal him to me when the time comes. I don't have to go through all the wrong ones to get to the right one. Until that time comes, God is more than enough for me. I'll enjoy the time I have with God without having any boys serving as a distraction. I don't mean that I'm going to never ever think of any guy friends that I have, but that I'm going to have them as friends and in my mind they are going to stay just friends, nothing more.

Another idol God has brought to my attention was facebook. Oh, the website that people can spent countless hours on, doing absolutely nothing of importance. I'm going on a facebook fast for this week, and even just after one day, I've realized how much time I spend on there. Ugh, Facebook shmacebook!
