It’s Designed to Run

 

Our two boys and I kicked the starter on that Honda 90 dirt bike until we were worn out, -- it didn’t start. Dirt bikes are fun, but they need maintenance, and this was bike fixing day.

As we rested from the kicking episode, I explained that an engine is designed to run and when we get the right ingredients in the right proportions it will run. Before it can run, it needs spark (for the sparkplug), air (through the air filter), and gasoline (through the carburetor).

Without A Cause

My heart is burning with excitement, joy, and peace, the kind that words cannot convey. I am completely satisfied in God’s love for us.

A part of my joy is prompted by John 15.25:

It was to fulfill the word that is written in their law, 'They hated me without a cause.' (Joh 15:25 NRSV)
