It took me about 10 minutes to read this passage; a passage where God lays out the truth in a painfully complete manner. The words of God through Amos in 5:14 speak to Christians today as strongly as they did to Israel centuries ago: “Don’t just call God your best friend, act like he is your best friend.” We can have a vocabulary that speaks of the greatness of God Almighty, but if we don’t know him, as he has revealed himself, how can we really be his friend? Do we shift our priorities to line up with his? Am I listening to him speak so that he can bring about the change in my life that I really need? These are good questions that we all need to ask ourselves, and then let God reveal the whole truth of the answers in our lives.
