BASKET CASES
When writing to a dear friend today whose car had broke down, a thought occurred to me;
It’s amazing how a $3 hose can put a car out of commission. But if you think about it, a car is only as good as the sum of it’s parts, and only as strong as the individual pieces that make it up. Some new cars have self-diagnostics on board that constantly check every system of the car and alert the driver if something is wrong. But unless the driver stops and fixes what the diagnostic system says is wrong, the car is headed for a failure. That’s where a mechanic comes in. Sooner or later you will need one. Everyone does. You will either drive to one, or be towed to one. Well, the body of Christ needs “mechanics” too.
