Earings

Let's talk earrings today...For the past couple of days my collection of earrings have been calling my name.  Now this is strange in many ways and I won't unpack all of them, but I will talk about one of them.  I usually only wear two or three pairs of my many pairs.  I never notice their color and tend to go for the silver ones.  These past few days their color, size and sparkliness have been pulling me in and luring me to wear them.  When I began the clothing section, I decided not to wear earrings except for one pair.  This pair now seems very drab, inappropriate, and just plain ugly.  I don't believe any of this is true.  I think it is the lure of change, the promise of different, that I am finding so attractive.  Isn't this what I do in my daily walk with Christ too?  What am I replacing with sparkly things, trying to fill a void that only Christ can fill?
