DON'T CRASH OR SHUT DOWN

Two things can happen to a car when it has been involved in a crash. It can either survive with the engine still purring and working or the car’s engine is completely shut down, stopped by fire and the dismembering of its parts.

Now, I would like you to carefully consider this imagery: The engine can survive the impact of the crash and continue to run or it can crash out of life or existence with the crash.

This is a good metaphor for most of us: We can survive the crashes of life without shutting down our engines or we simply crash out of existence.

I want to encourage you this morning, friends, not to crash out or shut down. Let the engine of your life remain in running condition and keep firing the cylinders so that life may come back to you. It’s not over till its over!
