An idol?

“Anthropologists define an idol as anything that is sacred such that it defines our self-worth, becomes the controlling center of our life, and is the last in a series of priorities to go.� (Your Work Matters to God-Sherman and Hendricks p.37)  God is to be our idol.  The commandments tell that we are not to make for ourselves an idol, or have any other god before the One True God.  Yet, from an anthropologist’s viewpoint, God is our idol.  Yet, many would never call God our idol, because our lives do not flesh out this definition.  For many, we do not allow God to define our self worth.  We have bought into finding our value in the job that we do.  Our desires are often our priorities instead of God being the controlling center of our lives.  Lastly, our lives rarely show God as the priority of our lives.So, the question for me is would someone else say that God is my idol?  If not, then what do I need to rearrange in my life so that God will be the one in which I find my self-worth, the controlling center of my life and the last of my priorities to go?
