Are You Submitting to God or Protecting Your Comfort?

Jeroboam didn’t want to submit to God—he wanted control. So he made his own gods, ones that wouldn’t challenge his pride or demand surrender. That same temptation is alive today. I have to ask myself regularly: am I following God, or am I reshaping Him to fit my comfort? Pride and selfishness are behind so many of our struggles, and until we let go, we’ll never fully walk in truth.
