Have you ever lived in a house where the washing sink takes too long to flow out? Even the bath tub takes a while for all the water to flow through? How did it feel? You and I will agree that, when the sink or the bath tub don't work efficiently there are dirt that are definitely blocking the flow within the pipe.
When a plumber is called to fix it, he uses an acidic substance to flush the sink and in minutes the dirt is blasted through and the sink and bath is back to normal.
A CLEAN ENGINE WILL ALWAYS DELIVER MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY (POWER)
There are lots of people whose lives seem not to be working at the rate it is supposed to. They do so much work and yet have little to show for it, they are literally struggling to make things happen. I believe it is time to check our 'engines' and clear our wheels from every clog that hinders the smooth running of the wheels.
Your heart is your engine, you need to at all times keep it free from offence.
It is not because you do not have the justification to be offended but because your progress in life is worth paying any price for, even if it means given up hurts and forgiving everyone who offends you. There is an amazing scripture I stumbled on lately..
1 Corinth 13:5 (The Amp)
''...charity does not keep record of wrongs...''
Love is the acidic substance that can flush every hurt and restore your life to the speed lane of fulfillment. Joseph loved his brothers and forgave them regardless of their offence, no wonder he became the Prime Minister. David, had an opportunity to slay Saul, yet he restrained himself and ascended the throne later. Isaac walked away even when his wells were forcefully taken, no wonder he ended up as the envy of the Philistines...you too can put your name on this list.
Be careful of the trap of offence, anger bitterness, etc. Let it go...I see your point, I see your pain...the question is
DO YOU REALLY WANT TO BE STAGNATED?
It is time to consciously let that hurt go. Get your phone, call that person, stop the malice...go and sort it out and be free again. Remember it is not because of their sake, it is for your sake.
The most interesting part is, these persons might have reconciled with God and have moved on and you are still holding an offence against them. How do you accuse someone of an offence whom God has forgiven...you will be working against God. Can a man work against God and be prosperous?
IT IS TIME TO LET IT GO...KEEP YOUR ENGINE CLEAN!
Till when next you visit this blog, KEEP KEEPING YOUR ENGINE CLEAN!
