Fix Or Repair Daily

Psalm 20:7 ~ "Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; But we will remember the name of the Lord our God."


Some are familiar with our ongoing issues with 'the truck'. As one of my dear friends likes to say, "FORD stands for Fix Or Repair Daily." Regardless of our vehicular loyalties, we all have put our trust in the ability of man-made things.


This weekend, my chariot, with all it's 274 horses, failed me. Halfway between point A and point B, it just quit. I was frustrated, angry, hurt (that my beautiful symbol of strength had let me down) and unsure about what to do. Stranded on the side of the road, I was hit with the reality of the uncertainty of anything except the Lord our God.

What are we putting our trust in? Is it some material thing that we believe will never let us down, or possibly our ability to do and achieve? Maybe we need to be reminded that our life, our strength, our hope is in the Lord Almighty.

Maybe F.O.R.D. ought to be our spiritual standard. Now THAT's a better idea!
