Ignoring the warning!

Proverbs 3: 5 - 6

⁵ Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. ⁶ In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.

Yesterday morning, I left church after our Men’s early morning prayer meeting, a sign appeared on the instrument panel of my car.

For some reason, I knew the warning sign wasn’t probably a good thing.

I then began to reason, and wondered how long I could drive this way, without getting into more trouble.

And then I thought… “Don’t we do that with God sometimes?”

The first thing I should’ve done, was call an expert who knew what the sign really meant, because I sure didn’t understand it.

People these days try to figure out their spiritual problems out for themselves, without first calling in an expert.

But since we have accepted Jesus as Savior, maybe we should trust our lives to His care.

God causes things to happen at exactly the right time, and He knows what He’s doing.

I want good things to happen in my life, the problem is, I want them right now, which in turn wears out my mind.

If our minds are all worn out all the time, then maybe we’re not trusting and acknowledging God.

The One who can bring repair, is just a call away.

If I had ignored the warning sign on my car, then I might have done some permanent damage.

Are you ignoring any warning signs from God? What will it take to call Him for repair? Maybe His ways are actually better than ours…
