Who cares for God?

Ex 29:44-46 “So I will consecrate the Tent of Meeting and the altar and will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests. Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God. They will know that I am the LORD their God, who brought them out of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the LORD their God.”

Ex 32:1 “When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, "Come, make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who brought us up out of Egypt, we don't know what has happened to him."”

God took Moses away a long time – 40 days and nights, to tell Moses what are the rules and regulations for the Israelites and also giving very detailed instructions on building the tablenacle and all so that God can dwell with amongst the people. So that He can be their God and they can be His people.

Whilst Moses was away, the people cannot wait and built and worshipped other gods. I wonder how God feel. Does anyone care how He feels? Do we care for God?

All of us want someone to care for us, love us, and appreciate us. We want justice, healing, provision, significance. When we approach God, we expect Him to listen and help us, care for us, love us. But do we care about God?

Love is both ways.

Prayer: Dear Lord, help me to care and love you as you have cared and loved me, in Jesus name, amen.
