"Have you noticed?"


You know how your car or truck gets dirty in the winter? The weather isn’t so warm so you don’t feel like washing it yourself. And much of the time the carwash is closed because of freezing temperatures.
It’s easy to slowly grow accustomed to the dirty appearance of your vehicle. That’s what happened to me recently. I just really didn’t see the dirt on my car…

…until my wife cleaned up and washed her vehicle one unusually warm day. So there’s her sparkling clean vehicle in the garage next to my dirty car and all of a sudden, I noticed the layers of road grime behind my tires, the cat-paw prints, and the smudged windows.

Life is a lot like my experience with my vehicles. When you’re with others who aren’t making a life, just a living, you don’t notice. But just as soon as you’re with some people who are enjoying making a meaningful, satisfying life, you notice that you’re just making a living.

Ask God to put you around people who listen to life today and enjoy the difference.
