Low Fuel Tank
2 weeks ago, I accompanied a friend to collect her new car from USJ industrial area. It was an honour to be her first passanger, yet I kept joking with her that I risk my life to accompany her. Haha.
After we collected her new car, the salesman gave us the direction to drive home and the nearest petrol station. As we drove out, hit on the highway, we missed the first petrol station on the left. Then, we passby second petrol station, we missed it again as we were driving on the centre lane and there were too many cars on the left that can allow us to do so. Thereafter, we were caught in a massive jam. The fuel tank light kept appearing. Finally, we were about 500m away from a petrol station, the car came to a stop. I was prepared to get down from the car and make a dash to the petrol station. My friend, quickly turned off the engine, prayed and turned it on again. The car get started. Praise God! We then quickly drove to the petrol station which was 500m away to fill up the tank.
Isn't it the same with our life? Busy with many things in our lives, like Martha. We find it difficult to be like Mary, to sit at the feet of Jesus, to learn from him and to spend time with him...to fill up our spiritual tank. But that is very important. To take us further in our journey, we can't run on a low fuel tank, but a filled tank.
