Not just a broken bottle...

"You shall have no other gods before me." Exodus 20:3

Today the team, Yvon, and I visited members of the church in Fedja in their homes. We talked with them, shared our stories, sang songs and prayed with them.
At one of the homes I saw a bottle half buried in the ground by the gate. But, I thought nothing of it. When walking out Pastor Yvon saw this too. He turned back to the women and spoke to her, he then dug it out of the ground spoke a few more words and broke the bottle on a rock.
There is a superstition that if you bury a bottle by your gate it will keep you safe. This is a voodoo practice.
By putting trust in anything other that God alone a person is worshiping an idol. It is Yvon's job. It is my job. It is your job. It is every Christian’s job to dig up the gods. And that might even be a god that is deep inside of us. Yes, it is our job to aid, love and bestow grace on our families, friends, neighbors and coworkers. But we need to use tough love, also. Sometimes we only pray that peoples eyes will be opened. God wants this person to change. He needs us to help them.
What are some idols you know that need to be broken?
