A Man Went to a used car lot. There were two cars there that caught his eye as he entered the lot.
The first was a nice robin-egg blue family car. Lots of trunk space. Reliable. Nice Dark Blue velvet interior, heat and air worked, small block V-6 engine, a nice family car
As he was looking, a used car salesman walked up. "I got the perfect car for you over here," he said. "It's cherry red 69 mustang fastback, fully restored, with black and red mach 1 interior, and a boss 429 bored out 40 over. This car is you!!!" The mustang cost more, but it appeared to be in primo condition, so the man chose the shiny, red sports car.
The man bought and paid for the mustang. It was all his!!! He got in it, and turned the key. It started so easy!! As he rebbed the engine, put it in gear, and left the lot, he claimed it for his own.
As he began to see what it would do, he discovered what the slick oil salesman had forgot to mention.
The car had no brakes.
The man tried to slow it down, but in his panic, he swerved and hit a tree. He was all right, but the car was totalled, and he would have to pay for another car.
Satan is the same way that slick oil salesman is. He talks a good talk. He tells us all the fun and exciting things about living in sin, but there is always something that he forgets to mention.
And once we choose sin, there are no brakes, no slowing down, the only way to stop is Jesus or the crash
and there is always something hard to hit in the end.
I will be taking a few days off to be with family for Christmas. My prayer is that everyone has a safe and enjoyable Christmas. Enjoy the time you have with each other. May the Lord bless you and keep you.
Merry Christmas from our Family to yours.
