“Now the tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God engraved on the tablets.” Exodus 32:16
“They have made themselves a molded calf, and worshiped it and sacrificed to it.” Exodus 32:8
The calf was fashioned from plundered gold. Jehovah is self-existent.
The calf didn’t exist before Aaron made it. Jehovah is eternal.
Aaron announced the calf was their god. Jehovah is the I AM.
God’s work or the work of our own hands.
We will follow our own ideas, our own philosophy, our own system.
Or we will choose to follow God’s.

This is really convicting. It really makes me stop and think about how I spend my time and where I spend my efforts. It’s encouraging, too, to know that if I follow God’s plan, it will endure. Great post!
