Christian Living
Broken Wires
Suddenly my chambers were dark as night, as my daily writings vanished before me, lost in cyberspace forever. I thought to myself; “Houston we have a problem” – I climbed up from my flight chair, as I wondered what was responsible for this attack on my cyber spacecraft. I cautiously searched to find what caused this catastrophic failure, without warning it powered up, only to vanish in the same instance. Was the enemy trying to intimidate me? I continued on my quest to find the heart of the problem, it seemed my attempts were in vain.
Our Christian walks are sometimes similar to the power failure I experienced today. There’s time when we feel supercharged, flying high, soaring on eagles wings and times when we come crashing down. We rifle through our lives, seeking the origin of our sudden descent. After exhausting our resources, we cry out; - “Lord we have a problem”- But it seems to fall on deaf ears. The power we once basked in has now turned dark and cold. When we can’t find the cause, we assign blame to the enemy.
The source of my power failure today was a broken connection, after years of being the main conductor of electricity, it wore out. It wasn’t overloaded and it didn’t blow. It just ceased to make the connection. It wasn’t the enemy, who we so quickly assign blame; it was a lack of knowledge. When a connection is broken, the Lords power can’t reach our lives. When we don’t read or study His word, the connection is completely severed.
I challenge you today; if it seems your wandering aimlessly in a vast darkness, or your life is on a crash course with eternal destruction, replace the old with the new. Pick up your bible and make a new connection. Then you will soar like an eagle, flying high in His eternal light, making your nest in the crags of His holy mountain.
