Too Fast for Filo!

Life can certainly come at us faster then we really expect. Many things in today's working world, not to mention family life, move at lighting speed, where just one decision can be life-changing. Many depend on their PDA to get them through one more day, but too many times we find ourselves press-down to the point where we can't seem to move forward. During these times, we need someone who can work and think outside the box; someone who looks at life "eternally" verses "just getting through the next hour." PDA's are great...but if we really want to have the ride-of-your-life...we need to look to Him, "the giver of all life." Only He can strap us in to meet the challenges of life. (Proverbs 3:5-6) Don't depend on a seatbelt or you may end up like Filo!

What Does it Take to Fill up your Tank?

Many of us are concerned about what it will take tomorrow to fill our gas tank, but did you ever stop to think what is required to fill up our Spiritual Tank. We are living in a Spiritual Energy Crisis. It is evident today that many of us are running on empty. I thought, wouldn't it be nice to see some type of a sign (like a bumper sticker) on each and every true Christian that might say: "Powered by Jesus!" Wouldn't that be neat? Shouldn't we be powered by Jesus?

Jesus Christ is the source of our power. What a vast difference it might make if every church member were one hundred percent powered by Jesus. That would be awesome. Not self-powered, but Jesus-powered. Far too many of us live on our own steam when there is available for our use the awesome almighty power of Jesus. Are you living with His Power?

I want you to look at 2 Peter 1:3. It says... "His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness." If your tank is dry and you feel like you need to stop and fill-up, try filling up with the only person who can truly fill you to the brim. It will not cost you $4.31/gallion; you are going to get the highest rated octane for the price of regular when you deal with Jesus!
