“Put some gas in the car!”

“What? Don’t you understand my car won’t go. I don’t know what to do.”

“Why won’t your car go? What might be wrong?”

“I think I’m out of gas. I don’t know what to do.”

“Put some gas in the car!”

This is the kind of conversation happening all over the place today. Not just with cars, but with marriages, parenting, career issues, etc. It’s especially happening in the spiritual lives of almost everyone!

“My marriage just isn’t working. I don’t know what to do.”

“Is it on empty?”

“Yes.”

“I’d recommend a fill-up.” Put some gas in the car …

“I don’t know how to do that.”

“Yes, you do. But you won’t …”

“Well, my life with God isn’t any better. In fact, it may be worse.”

“On empty?”

“Yes.”

“Needs a fill-up.”

“I don’t know how to do that.”

“Yes, you do. But you don’t.”
