It's What Owns You | Not About Me, Not About Now (Part 6) (Jim Shelburne)

The oldest temptation is pretty much “one size fits all. “It is idolatry. You can trace just about every other temptation to that one. So, it’s a good idea from time to time to identify things in our lives that have the potential to become idols, things that could well become “too precious to us. “

Once we identify them, we can be reminded that everything belongs to God and that all good things are a gift from his hands, loaned to us for a season. And we can learn to hold things with very loose hands because it will hurt much less when God asks us to let them go. Just ask Abraham…

The amazing thing is that when we are willing to let go of these gifts, we will one day be able to receive everything back that we once thought was ours. It’s about trusting God with our stuff.
