a carwash christian life page 5 by ric gustafson.
John 14:1-' Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in me'
After you put in your code number and hit the enter button, you can proceed with the carwash. Immediately, you will see a sign telling you to do some things. First, it tells you to put the car into neutral. This means you need to take your feet off of the pedals and let the track move the car. My first reaction is wait a minute! I can't do that.
I believe that the christian life is a constant struggle between our will and God's will. Our sinful will is to have our feet always on the pedals, the car in drive and to be in charge of our own lives. But that is not what God wishes for our brief life here on this earth. God wants us to take our feet off the pedals of our sinful will and let him take control of our life. God wants his will to drive our lives. It feels uncomfortable to not be in control of our lives but Jesus says believe in me and not be afraid.
Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric
