I usually
wonder how those engineers discovered car airbags.
They are deployed once there is impact. Once there is impact, they are
activated and POOF......they rise just in time, saving the pretty face from
smashing on the dashboard........Just like the seat belts too, once the sensors
on them perceive that the speed with which they are pulled is faster than
normal, they snap and stop your chest from hitting the steering.
These things are in almost all new cars now, and i think all road-worthy cars would have them....Because at times in life, you have to slow down very quickly......and you just need something strong and reliable to hold you at those times!!!!! Or else, you sink fast..
There are some challenges in life that will shake even the strongest of men!!!!
So, God help those who are naturally feeble.
The good thing is that God knew that we are humans and that our heart starts beating fast at the mention of a sad news or when we are confronted by that which is not pleasant.
God has given us some seatbelts and some airbags because He knows that at times, life will throw some suprises and He wants us well equipped.
For some of us, its the breakdown of treasured relationships.
For some, its failure in that which you thought you were excellent.
For some its physical body illness,
For some , its financial disappointments.
Those times come, when you look up and down and you want to hold onto THE SURE THING...that will not fail you in spite of all around failing...that's what I am talking about...
THE ANCHOR....THAT HOLDS YOU STRONG IN THE STORM....
John 14:25-27:
25 “I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. 26 But when the Father sends the Comforter[a] instead of me*—and by the Comforter I mean the Holy Spirit—he will teach you much, as well as remind you of everything I myself have told you.
27 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart! And the peace I give isn’t fragile like the peace the world gives. So don’t be troubled or afraid.
Haaaaaaa, peace of mind!!!! and heart!!!!!
Peace that is not fragile!!!! That is not easily toppled by the wind...
That is not subject to change!!!!
What a relief...! That means when every other factor changes, THIS IS CONSTANT....
God has ensured that your car is road-worthy.
He has given you His spirit as a seal.
He is with you even when you are worried that you are alone.
He is the only reason why many of us are still smiling in spite of the heat that is burning under the clothes.
He is the assurance and the hope for tomorrow! That in spite of all that is going on now, it will be well.
I would like to remind you my sisters, the only anchor that does not fail is in JESUS.
He is the only One who can help you stay calm in the midst of all that life is throwing at you. Dont take it all on your head and on your heart. The human mind is not designed to be able to withstand this extreme pressure. You have the SHOCK ABSORBER......
Call Him when you feel weak
Call Him when you feel like no one else cares.
Call Him when you cant even tell your best friend what you are going through.
Call Him when you think He has given up on you, you will be shocked that He is there , hanging around you.
Don’t allow weariness to take away your joy....the enemy will come, he is bound to come, dont face him alone.....USE THE AIRBAGS, they will cushion you and save you from the dents and broken bones.....YOU CANT FIGHT THIS ALONE.
Your helper is ever present.
