Maybe the only God can get our attention is by removing our Idols.
I'm not talking about your friends directly. I'm talking about God's people as a whole.
What have our Idols been? laying up treasures of this world, trusting in the system, Education, entertainment,etc.
I think that God has been patient but we haven't heeded the gentle
tugs.

JT, we had a family in our church who lost their home to this
foreclosure crisis. At first they were so stressed out, working all kinds
of jobs, never home for their 4 kids, etc etc,
After it all caved in, they said they actually felt a huge relief. they
have more time for God, for their kids, everyone is at peace
