New Year Renovation

My son called the other day to tell me that his truck broke down. He explained that an ignition relay fuse blew and shorted out the entire electrical system. He couldn’t believe something so small would have such a huge impact on the entire truck. This little fuse shut the entire truck down and made it non-drivable. He kept buying little fuses as a quick fix to start the truck instead of taking it in to get it fixed properly. Eventually, this stopped working, and the truck had to be towed and repaired the right way.

I couldn’t get the picture of this little fuse shutting down the truck out of my mind. I felt the nudging of the Holy Spirit wanting to show me something with this scenario. He impressed upon my heart to find out more about what an ignition relay fuse does for a truck. According to Google, this fuse is responsible for providing power to the vehicle's ignition system and some of the fuel system's components. When the relay fails or has an issue, it can cause major problems with the vehicle's operation.

Restless or Resting

This morning, I woke up to a text from my oldest son sent at 3 am, which said, "I am restless." He is 19 and recently moved into an apartment. He is extremely driven and entrepreneurial. He sets big goals for himself and always feels like he should be doing more, not satisfied with where he is in life. He is a deep thinker and processes everything internally. Being alone in his apartment, he is stuck with his thoughts. Have you ever been alone with your thoughts? Thoughts like… I am not doing enough. I know I was made for more. I should have more money by now. I am not where I want to be with my business or ministry. I am not where I want to be spiritually. Can you relate to this kind of internal restlessness? I know I can because I grew up thinking all these things and living in fear, anxiety, and strife. I believed lies about God and myself. In the last ten years, the Lord has done some significant healing in all these areas and taught me about living from a place of rest.
