This photo comes to me thanks to my good friend and fellow traveler, Finch (he only needs one name).

This photo shows a young woman worshipping at a shrine in Asia. People around the world worship a variety of gods, and shrines like this exist throughout East and South Asia. As believers in Jesus Christ, we claim to worship the One True God and want others to know the one we worship as well.

However, some people worship no god at all. But these folks are not without worship, they have simply aimed their devotion in another direction. It may be money, or status, or education, or intelligence, or fame or celebrity or sports or relationships or experiences or ability, or whatever, but everyone puts their hope and trust somewhere, even if it’s into themselves.

We all worship something. Are you confident that your worship is aimed in the right direction?

I cannot get over this picture, taken during Cru’s Hurricane Harvey month of relief work in March. Due to a lack of housing, a number of students brought their hammocks and slept, well, in the trees. Oh, how I wish I still had a young back!
