Who are you following?
They followed worthless idols and themselves became worthless. They imitated the nations around them although the LORD had ordered them, "Do not do as they do," and they did the things the LORD had forbidden them to do. They forsook all the commands of the LORD their God and made for themselves two idols cast in the shape of calves, and an Asherah pole. They bowed down to all the starry hosts, and they worshiped Baal.
2 Kings 17:15,16 NIV

What we set our eye upon to follow, day by day, we will be transformed into that which we behold. So,
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full on His wonderful face
And the things of earth

In the light of His Glory and Grace.

Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God is the object of
our faith; the only faith that saves is faith in Him.
Do you know the Father? Does The Father know you?
All things have been handed over to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and anyone to whom the Son wills to reveal Him. "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest.
"Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light."
Matthew 11:27 - 30 NASB
