Joshua 24:23

"Now then," said Joshua, "throw away the foreign gods that are among you and yield your hearts to the Lord, the God of Israel."

What are the foreign gods I need to throw away? What is a god? It is anything that takes his place. I guess that means anything I go to in times of trouble. Anything I rely on for peace, comfort, solace, guidance, or personal value. Anything I constantly think about and worship. Anything I allow to get in the way of doing God's work or fulfilling his purpose. How do I spend my time, money, energy, and thoughts?

Lord, I want you and only you as the God of my life. Lord please help me to throw away the foreign gods in my life. I want to yield my heart to only you. Amen.
