Not Responsible For Chipped Windshields

But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. John 14:26

Okay so you have no doubt seen the dump trucks in your community on the highway that have a message on the back stating “not responsible for chipped windshields” basically saying if you are tail gating and a rock flies out and cracks your vehicle windshield the dump truck company is not liable. Even if you are not actually on their bumper the stones still fly out and bounce down the highway and likely may hit you.  

Now I am using this catchy grabbing opener to relate to following after things in your life you know are not right or you know are separating you from God but you do them anyway justifying why you are totally ignoring God or that little voice in your head. Temptation often can be pretty great but you have a helper, the Holy Spirit able to help you escape the snares of the enemy. 

Your fleshly nature often tries to gain control and you have to tame it and run the other way. Satan tries to get you off course and make you justify why you are participating in some activity you know deep down is leading you away from God. Today listen to the voice of God. Don’t be trapped by the culture, snares of this present world, or things you know will lead you further into darkness. Run to Jesus. 

PRAYER: Thank you for the Holy Spirit my friend, helper, and comforter. I choose to listen to your voice and not get caught up following ‘too close’ to things that will destroy my life. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
