God is our spiritual mechanic. He refuels us every morning. God can change, rotate, and balance our life. When we are broken, damaged or defective, He can repair us. Whatever malfunction we are experiencing, body, soul, or mind, He can fix it! The best part is Jesus already paid the price for us, so it is all free! Because of Jesus we can have an eternal warranty. If we allow Him, God will even rebuild us. Sometimes we need detailed from inside, cleaning up on the outside will only get you so far! When God cleans us on the inside, it ensures that our integrity and soundness is in tact. This is important because our structural integrity is essential to the survival of others, if we fail in our Christian duties, others can go down in flames along with us. We must not resist God’s ordered stress test, but use them as indicators to gage where we are in our Christian walk. The lives of others may depend on our ability to withstand. Consider these questions; how do you react when your stress test is at hand? Do you go to the Master Mechanic? What did you learn from your last stress test? Are you committed to the maintenance and upkeep of your body, the temple of the Holy Spirit? How joyful it is to have God as our master mechanic and to keep us tuned up for eternal life!Love and Blessings…
