God's Word Is New Everyday

DO you remember when you purchased that new something? It was shiny, fresh, free from dents, dirt and scratches.
Remember when you said that "we will never eat in this auto." THen you were on a road trip and time was of the essence and guess what..."we ate in the auto." Now the car is older and has a few scratches, dents and dirt marks. We aren't quite so emphatic with housekeeping the auto any longer. Just check under the seats for lost things. How did that get there?
Such is the way of life to the casual, unobserving, don't really care attitude. In life everything sooner or later may loose its shine, no longer smell fresh, has dents and scratches. Every so often we see a well kept auto that is a pleasure to observe. Likewise we look upon certain individuals who have traveled many dusty roads but their lives are still shiny, they still have proper perspective and are dependable due to preventitive maintenance. If you're life is filled with dirt, scratches and has lost its luster there is a repair shop where you can be refurbished. The church (as designed by God) is a place where you can take your dents, dirt and scratches with reassurance that in time the luster will return to your eyes, your life will be cleansed from the inside out. Oh, your wrinkles and scars may not go away but your heart is mended and you have become dependable. You readily start your day without groaning and you don't miss a beat as you run through your day. Your fuel is the Word of God. God's fuel (the word) never gets trash in it nor has water that makes us spit and sputter. As you run your life with a fresh fill of God's Word each day you will find you life running smoothly each time you fill-er-up. Take God's Word. It is new everyday. It takes care of contamination and deposits that sludge up your life.

God bless your reading of God's Word
