“When the people realized that Moses was taking forever in coming down off the mountain, they rallied around Aaron and said, “Do something. Make gods for us who will lead us. That Moses, the man who got us out of Egypt—who knows what’s happened to him?””
Exodus 32:1 MSG
Exodus 32:1 MSG
Have you ever thought God was taking too long to do something in your life and you took matters in your own hands? The children of Israel are not any different from us. God had never once disappointed them. In fact, he had done miracle after miracle. But when he paused, they lost their trust and "made other gods."
Next time you realize that God seems silent, don't be tempted in any way to form another god to help you out. Wait. Trust. The golden calf you are substituting is just that...a man-made god. That god will disappoint you every time. The real God will never ever ever disappoint you. He is worth waiting for.
