Jeremiah 10:5
Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,
their idols cannot speak;
they must be carried
because they cannot walk.
Do not fear them;
they can do no harm
nor can they do any good.â

People expect gods to perform. Gods of our own creation must give us more than we have. Consider if your devotion to money, power, screens, work, substances, or something else competes with your spiritual commitments. Lord have mercy if we worship a broomstick scarecrow!
Consider how your life measures up in light of Godâs promises.
âInitial D: The Fool with Two Demonsâ is credited to the Master of the Ingeborg Psalter. After 1205. âAn enthroned man wearing a foolâs cap illustrates the opening verse of Psalm 52-âThe fool says in his heart âThere is no God.ââ The scroll he holds proclaims this heresy: Non e[st] Deu[s] (There is no God). Two mischievous demons incite him to this thought, while an angel above attempts to warn the fool against such a notion.â from the Getty Museum Catalog. Public Domain.
