While reading in First Kings we read about King Rehoboam. The King of Egypt came and stole the gold articles, shields etc. Rehoboam substituted the golden pieces, Solomon had made, with bronze.
You and I often sadly substitute an inadequate item for what God had intended for us.
We substitute, The Brass of Activity for the Gold of Sincerity.
The Brass of reading a good book for the Gold of The Good Book.
The Brass of Personality for the Gold of God's Power.
The Brass of Preference for the Gold of Principle.
The Brass of temporal for the Gold of Eternal.
Let's not be busy doing the work of the Lord and forget the Lord of the Work!
