Plugged In?!?!

(Saturday 20th of July 2013)

Sometimes in life we forget we need a main power source until we try to use an appliance or tool and wonder why it's not working. 

This happened last week with Audrey, Robyn and I. 

Whilst sanding on Thursday we realised that one of the sanders wasn't working and after a quick inspection we noticed that it wasn't plugged into the power point (outlet) inside. This was fixed immediately and sanding of the crosses was endeavoured by all three of us again.

 

How similar is this to our walk with God? We often get so caught up in the busyness of life that we don't stay connected to the Father, in every day happenings, and it's not until something that's out of our control or something that overwhelms us that we go running back to God and seeking His powerful and wise hand in our life.  Seeking His help. 

But this is not what it should be like. Not really. Because without staying connected to God, we try to use our own battery-powered abilities, instead of allowing God to charge us fully - who's waiting for us to plug into His source of life. 

It's through His word, the Bible, and talking to Him daily - surrendering every aspect of our life to him, that He is able to be a part of our life and it's the best thing we could do to surrender our lives and allow God to be Lord, Saviour, provider, strength, encourager, lover and healer, who has blessed us with an electrical current that nothing in this world could ever replicate. 

It's through Him alone we should find identity. And I know it is only Him that I need in this life alone.  He's my electrical current I'm going to continue to plug into, is He yours?
