‘Idols’ - things we look to other than God to control our lives. A thing higher than it should be. *
Our brokenness leads us to make something else God in us The Ultimate.
What’s your comfort?
Think: When are you most fragile? Rejected? Misunderstood? Isolated? Shamed?
What do you comfort yourself with? If you don’t experience God in that, it might be your idol - aka addiction. A comfort that you need. -

- reminder - the goal of your life - is to know God & love people. He has stuff he wants to do with you too, these 3 are your life’s calling- your destiny - your purpose. Know God, love people, and do the stuff he made you to do.
Old man, Augustan said “We must empty ourselves of all we are full of so we can be filled with all we are empty of.”
Give all your worries and cares to God because He cares about you. 1 Peter 5:7
What’s your ultimate Goal? Does it honour & Love God? Does it include him?
- if not, you should stop chasing this - it’ll break you and the people around you.
How do you cope with life? Does it honour & Love God? Does it include him?
