Today, Laurie and I went to Cameron’s school for an egg drop competition. It was cool. The kids put together containers to contain an egg and then a firetruck with a ladder was raised and they dropped it. Take a look at the video. Those that did not crack either had a great parachute or had plenty of padding. I was amazed at those who survived. The eggs that made were ones that were light and well insulated. The students had a good plan and understood how it should work. My son had a great idea but it was too heavy and hit pretty hard. It got me to thinking. Our lives are similar to this. What we put around us determines whether we will crack up or not when life gets crazy. A good plan before hand can help us when we are tested. What we have in our lives and around us determines if we will crack. Let God surround you.
My life lately has been a little crazy. I have been good about putting things around me that keep my life from falling apart. Here are just a few things that help in my everyday life.
1) Knowing that God cares more about me than about my ministry.
This has come through consistent times of being alone with God through prayer and reading the Bible.
2) A wife that is in love with God more than me.
3) A group of people who pray for me often.
I know there is more than this but it is a start. What do you think keeps you from cracking up when life drops you from a high position?
