Adoration

Who deserves your adoration? 

Hollywood and celebrities want us continuing to give them our money. They want us to stay home, keep paying them to gratify/bring people momentary meaning. As if being noticed by them is all we need.


They've become some people's savior. Except this savior doesn't care what you think. This savior doesn't know your name. This savior doesn't love you. Even though this savior says they love you constantly. This savior counts on your money and time so they can profit. 


Hollywood has loved this shutdown. They talk about loving their time to slow down. They are in mansions with enough money to feed a small army, build orphanages, help end human trafficking etc. etc. It's also enough money to wield power. And it's enough money that allows a person to be extra free financially. They don't have to budget in a trip to the movies. They never have to say, oh we'll get that next month. Middle Americans, we have said those types of things. Many of us budget and sacrifice to make life work for us. They act like their experience has been the same positive experience for their fans. When does a multimillionaire ever have to NOT buy something?

They Spent 2020 in mansions, eating the best foods, writing that novel they always wanted to write, recording their zoom calls with other celebrities and airing them on Facebook. And people consume their content and help them grow their Net Worth. 

They don't care about what you went through because they are comfortable. And they have all they could ever want or need because of their fans. And that is why they thank you and say they love you. 

People who rely on fame for their self-worth and income, are being very intentional about keeping your adoration. They know without your adoration, they have nothing. All of their fame and money from that fame is because of you. They don't genuinely care about you, they need you to be their fans. And that is why they continually try to entertain you. 

But here is the kicker, when you worship Jesus and chase after him, and get to know him for yourself, he doesn't need to entertain you in order to gain your adoration. Because knowing Jesus allows you to know your self-worth, your value on this planet. You no longer need the things of this world to gratify the empty feelings, the lonely feelings of not being cool enough or good enough. The feeling of not being worthy of forgiveness or love fades away. You no longer have to carry your past mistakes. 

What was done on the cross changed everything. Jesus finished it all. 

Hollywood doesn't want people to find their self worth in having relationship with Christ. Have you ever wondered why God is left out of Hollywood? It's the evil one's plan. The enemy wants us distracted by any means possible.

An undistracted Jesus follower is Satan's greatest fear.
