Idols of the Heart: What are You Living For?

The Question That Will Not Go Away
The plain of Dura is not as far away as it seems. Every day presents its own version of that moment — the music plays, the crowd bows, and the furnace waits for those who refuse to comply. The idols are different. The pressure is different. But the question is the same.
What are you living for? What could you not give up without feeling like your life had lost its meaning? What do you reach for when fear sets in?
The God who walked with three men through a furnace in ancient Babylon is the same God who promises his presence to those who trust him today. He is not looking for perfect people. He is looking for people who, when the music plays and the crowd bows, know who they belong to — and stand.
