It’s Empty.

If the gas tank says it’s on empty. It’s empty. I learned this the hard way on Monday. I thought I could get back to campus so I drove past four gas stations. My car died literally 40 feet from the campus… 40 feet. So I sat there for thirty minutes until help came.
What was I thinking? I drove past FOUR gas stations. I thought I could do it, obviously, I was wrong.
Lately, I’ve been trying way to hard to do things by myself. Carry 17 hours at school, oversee 3 separate worship services at Madison Park, booking/band stuff, start an LLC, and the list goes on…
Honestly, in the business sometimes I don’t even run with God. Sometimes I’d rather run by myself. I know, I know… stupid. So I’m grateful for that time I was stranded on the road. I turned down help, and I know where that got me.
I can’t let that happen to my spiritual life.
What gas stations are you driving by today?

God is the God of Second Chances.
