Running on Empty

How many of us allow our cars to run on empty? I never used to let my car get below a quarter of a tank but with today's gas prices I often find myself cruising on E to find the best price. The other day I was running late to work and to drop my son off at his preschool. Driving down the road you guessed it, the gas light came on. I was already late and didn't need this now. As I stood there pumping gas, realizing how late I really was I had no one to blame but myself. I should have taken closer notice of the gas gauge.

How many times do I let my life run on E? There are days I skip my devotion, I half heartedly say my prayers and wonder why I am having such a bad day. Well, if I paid closer attention to my personal gas gauge I would realize I need the Lord every minute of every day and I would never allow myself to run on E. I have made a vow - I am going to try and fill up my car from now on when it is on a quarter of a tank and never let my spiritual tank run low.

I pray each of you will also fill your spiritual tank daily. God Bless.
