[[-SOAP HUB]] | [[-Psalm Overview]] | [[Psalm 115]] ## Title: You Become Who You Hang Around ## Scripture: (Psalm 115:8-10) “Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them. O Israel, trust in the Lord. He is their deliverer and protector. O family of Aaron, trust in the Lord. He is their deliverer and protector.” (NET) ## Observation: Today’s song talks about how those who worship these dead and worthless idols become just like them. Worshiping a dead god only makes you dead on the inside. However, we should put our trust in the Lord because He is far from dead. He is alive and active in our world and in our lives. Therefore, we should spend time in His presence, in worship, in reading His Word, and in reflection about His goodness. People have a tendency to begin imitating what we spend time around. It’s part of our nature. If we hang around the dead things of the world, we will begin acting in that way. But, if we spend time with the Lord and reading about His character in His Word, we will begin reflecting His nature and character as well. ## Application: Spend time reflecting on the Lord today and never see that as wasted time. You are slowly learning how to become more like Christ. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always welcoming us into Your presence.
