The other night as I was filling up my sixteen-gallon gas-guzzler of an automobile, I began to think about all the many ways we re-fuel in life. I began to think about what we are putting into our minds to recharge us, bolster us, and give us energy to get us up and get us going every day.
What if we viewed each morning-- each entire day-- as though we woke up with an empty tank yet a completely clean slate? What types of fuel would you use to ramp up your wisdom? Your knowledge?
Have you ever considered how important it is to fill your mind with the high octane, penetrating truth of the Bible? When is the last time that you pulled your vehicle up to this pump?
It really is profound how our lives are suddenly transformed when we allow the truth of God to fill our tanks. Life runs rather smoothly. We don't have to worry about running out of gas, or gas prices going through the roof. Jesus said, "I am the same yesterday, today, and forever." All it takes is a little humility and openness each day to let God fill us with his overarching wisdom and understanding.
Have you refueled today?
