My Birthday Gratification
Day 30th
Let me tell you this story...
I lived in a house that made scarcity of water almost an impossible occurrence.
The tap was flowing freely on daily basis. The availability of light made pumping of water a routine activity.
So I felt there was no need having a water reservoir since I had a standby machine that supplied water for me on daily basis.
I had lived like that for a very long time, until something remarkable happened.
That fateful morning, I woke up with the news that the pumping machine water had spoilt a night before dawn.
I taught it was something unserious that could be repaired in a twinkle of an eye, but the repair took longer than expected.
So I ended up having nothing to fall back on for those period of prolonged repair. There was no water reservoir.
I had felt it wasn't needful since the supply was constant.
It took me the extra stress of going some miles away in search of water for some days.
It was such a huge lesson to me. After the experience, I got a reservoir; a water tank.
Now come to think of it...
I felt there is need to have a reservoir in my life journey?
Spiritually...
I am making effort to have an extra oil in my lamp.
I am still running in the voyage of a charged battery with plans for a recharge.
Yes...
My life's spiritual battery may be 90% now, I make tremendous impacts now, I live being transformed under my own ministrations, and then, I am already feeling relaxed.
Hmmmmm, I have realized that constant usage without recharge will make me experience low life battery soon.
I need reservoirs.
Seriously... I do!
Spiritual reservoirs.
I don't glory in the results I am seeing today. They are the results of the charging I made yesterday, if I don't recharge today, I will be stranded in the future.
I feel a great burden in my heart about this. Oh Lord help me!!!
Make me feel too uncomfortable in my comfort zone!
Make me too alert not to leave my battery to get to a red bar rate before we know there is need for a recharge.
Dear Lord,
Even in my functional state, help me not to be too busy to recharge for tomorrow. It is a heart cry Lord. May I
