Have you ever wondered why it keeps breaking?

Delight thyself also in the Lord: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Psalms 37:4-5

I remember years ago, I had a  ’92 Jeep Cherokee and when things would go wrong  I would get under that bad boy, find me a book and make some repairs. However, things keep going wrong on the truck so I would keep trying to fix it but things kept breaking. So after a while I brought it to the professionals. What would took me a day and a half to fix, took them about a half an hour. Now mind you it did cost me some money, but I didn’t have that problem again. After countless times of trying to save money and fix it myself, I finally realized that it was beyond my expertise and abilities. If I had not realized that fixing my Cherokee was beyond my expertise, I would’ve continued experiencing it having to be repaired.

Sometimes, God will allow things to keep breaking, in hopes that we will realize that fixing it has nothing to do with our own ability. Stop trying to fix it yourself, because you cannot. You are broke and broken because you’re doing repairs that you have no business doing. You were not made to have to fix it because in the midst of you trying to fix it, you become broken. Let God do the repairs because He will save you time and money. Just give it to the Lord!
