iGod > iPod

i miss you, God.

everytime i'm stressed, angry, sick, whatever,.. i seem to turn to music. whether it is singing at nrb, downloading or listening to my ipod.. it's the first thing that always comes to me. it's my remedy.

but lately i've been trying not to do that. i've been trying to make God my number 1, not my iPod. God's really trying to help me do that too, because dun dun dun, my ipod's almost broken!!!! i cannot listen to it without pressing down on the input thingy where my headphone goes in...it's really frustrating. but then i bet God up there is having a little laugh.

"You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourself an idol in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below." - Exodus 20:2-4

part of the ten commandments, the simple ten things that He tells us not to do, but yet it's so hard! i justify myself in saying that music isnt my idol..it's just music. it's part of my life, like breathing. but apparently, our jealous God considers it an idol, and i shouldn't turn to music but instead to him.

lately, i've been missing my ipod..but with doing some soul searching, i'm coming to the realization that what i'm really truly missing is God, not my ipod.
