Daily Reading: Psalm 97 thru Psalm 100

Key Verse: Psalm 100:3

Everyone who has a vehicle is faced with a decision at one point or another.  When something goes wrong, where do you take it?  We have the option of a cheaper mechanic who has general knowledge about how all cars work or we can take it to the manufacturer's dealer where the car originated from.  There is a higher price to pay when you go to the dealer but they put the car together and totally understand how each part was designed to function in that particular car.  When it is all said and done, by the time you finish paying the general mechanic, you soon realize that you should have gone to the dealer in the first place. 

Where do you go when something goes wrong with your life?  Many seek out people.  There are some brilliant people who know a lot about how life is suppose to work (ex. Oprah, Dr. Phil, etc.).  There are countless programs that were designed by brilliant people to address the needs of broken lives.  There are millions of dollars spent each year on such programs but the problems are perpetuated through the generations.  Why not go to the creator/manufacturer of life when things go wrong?  There may be a higher price to pay.  You may have to sacrifice some time and exert some effort to get in the presence of the creator.  You may even have to wait on an answer.  The creator of life is The Most High God.  He fully understands how each part of our lives are designed to function together.  He loves us so much that He created all things to work together for our good and for His glory.  It's not difficult to contact Him.  His business cards are all around us.  The birds sing His number all day long.  The trees point to his office constantly.  His office doors are open eternally.  God, our Father and creator, desires for us to come to Him when life is good and bad.  By the time you finish dealing with people you'll realize that you should have gone to God in the first place.
