A Little Encouragement - April 8, 2009

Get it out of the way

If we are to allow God to develop us, and bring us to our destined blessing: sometimes, we need to "cut the anchor and throw the cargo overboard". We need to assess our life, and get rid of inappropriate values, principles, attitudes, or plain habits and associations. We need to align ourselves to God's purposes. God intends the very best for us - so, let us release that which hold us down, and sail on.


God's Word says:

"But rocky shoals prevented us from getting close. We only managed to avoid them by throwing out drift anchors. Next day, out on the high seas again and badly damaged now by the storm, we dumped the cargo overboard. The third day the sailors lightened the ship further by throwing off all the tackle and provisions." - Acts 27:17-19 (The Message)
