My God is the King of the universe.  My God is the Creator of Heaven and Earth, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.   There is no other God for me.

An idol is not necessarily an image. It is anything we value and place ahead of God in our lives, so yes most people, probably everyone will have idols. If you seek God on this he will reveal your idols and if you are willing he will help you to overcome them. It's not easy but God will always provide a way for you to have a relationship with him.

He is my Sovereign Creator, my Righteous Redeemer, my Heavenly Father, my Eternal Judge and Merciful Savior.   He has no beginning and no end. His mercies are as high as the Heavens.   He is my Lord and King.  He loves me with indescribable loves and holds me up in His Everlasting arms.   I'd say that is a pretty good description of my God.

I already did.

"Arms" is a figure of speech.  God is a spirit and has no physical form, nor is He corporeal.   The point is that He not only made me but keeps and sustains me.

I think one of he most common 'idols' ,especially in the modern western world is that of making  'stars ' of ordinary people . Here in France since most people in the 'arts and film ,theatre business who entertain, make idols of their partners and spouses  . The French make the most boring self obsessed films about 'love' ,but they are simply excruciatingly shallow ,and about this false idea they have  over  here about the    'homme ou femme de ma vie',someone  who will make you perfectly happy .

Idols are made of Individuals as though any human can make you totally  happy in the long term , unless you adore and love  GOD .
