Favorite Things Week 2 Cars and Cloth
(the song is by big dane!!!)
does anyone remember this awesome show from the MTV glory days? When Xzibhit would pick up a person in their busted down or worn out ride and promise to make it a lot cooler based on what they were into? They would pull the beater into the garage inspect it and come with a game plan to improve whatever junk car they were working with....with mad mike running thousands of feet of cable through an old VW bus just so the surfer guy could have a dryer in his trunk to tumble dry his wet suit....
it always amazed me how little they did for the actually heart and core of the car.... sure it shot flames from the muffler and had a sweet new interior... but the hardly ever replaced an engine or even probably gave it an oil change...
we are guilty of the exact same thing in our spiritual lives... we want to accessorize and customize all the little things that are never the heart of the matter... Jesus addressed this with His disciples and put it this way...
“No one sews a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. If he does, the patch tears away from it, the new from the old, and a worse tear is made.And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins—and the wine is destroyed, and so are the skins. But new wine is for fresh wineskins.””
(Mark 2:21–22 ESV)
Come Tomorrow and check out more as we try to understand why our favorite things may be our most important things!!!
