Change Up

Do you change the oil in your car? If not, you better start! Just as you change the oil in your car, you need to change the oil in your life.

A body of water that doesn’t get fresh water, it will grow stagnate. You are the same. If you don’t change the oil in your car your engine will lock up. The same goes for your spirit, soul and body. You have to have fresh water and consistent oil changes. The key is to keep yourself fresh and new. Never think that you will be able to make it on what you did last year, last week, or even yesterday in some cases. When you stop changing and growing you stop living. You will become dry and stale. Continue to learn, keep on doing a new thing. God is in new things too. It may not be new to Him, but it is new to us. Be refreshed and refilled each day. Go ahead and take that class, read that book, apply for that job. There are so many things that you can do to keep yourself fresh and new. Don’t let fear stop you from reaching out and taking advantage of what is around you today. Is there a new project you want to start? Is there an area of your life that needs freshness?
