The Light Switch
(Psa 78:7 NIV) Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.
(John 14:1 NIV) "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me.
When the sun starts going down and the house is getting dark I reach for the light switch. This doesn’t seem like any big deal until nothing happens. If we think about it we have more faith in that light switch than in God. But that light switch doesn’t work without everything that goes on behind it.
First the builder of the power company has to make sure everything is working on their end. Then the power company has to bring the power to your house. The power company comes out and hooks up the main power. Then the builder the house has to make sure all the wiring is correct. The builder wires the circuit breaker in the house and all the wiring is run through out the house. The breakers are turned on and everything is checked.
If one of these things is missed it will not work. It is the same with God. If we follow His Word but do not pray and get the connection with him our lives will be like a lamp that is unplugged.. So the next time you reach for that light switch think about God and make that prayer connection.
Prayer: Lord may we come to place more Faith in You then in a simple light switch.
