Advent 12 : God Like?

Disturbing Complacency has caused me to think about the Tower of Babel today.

These people started to build a tower to the heavens because they were afraid of being scattered around the earth. Out of fear, they stoped trusting God and instead looked for security in fame and their own achievement. Their motivation all along is self preservation of their own values.

‘When a nation’s values displaces God’s values, that nation has stolen the rightful place belonging to God.’ (Disturbing Complacency)

Out of fear, how has our nation stolen the rightful place of God?
Out of fear, how have I, in my life, stolen the rightful place of God?

I guess I find the answer by looking at my life and asking myself
‘where am I acting like God?’
