TRIPLE A FORMULA

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.  John 15:7

When I was single, I couldn't live with out it -- Triple A, that is.  I lost track of the number of flat tires they changed for me, and the times they jumped my dead battery.  (I have a husband to handle those taks, now, thank the good Lord!)   Then there was the time my brakes failed.  And the time I rode into town with the front end of my car dangling precariously (or so I thought) from the rear of the tow truck.  Yep, as a single gal, AAA was my security blanket when it came to travel!

But you know, as a Christian I have a fantastic Triple A formula to carry me through the rough roads of life.   It doesn't cost any $36 per year, either.  (I'm sure Triple A is much more than $36 a year nowadays!)  While I don't have to dip into my billfold to activate this formula, there is a triple process for which I am responsible.

According to the above Scripture, those three things are:

                    (1)  abide in Christ,
                    (2)  let His words abide in me,
                                        and then I can
                    (3) ask in confidence and assurance knowing that God will
                               do His part in answering.

No, I couldn't get along without Triple A -- earthly or spiritual.

How about you?  Why not spend some extra time this busy season of the year in abiding in Christ through prayer?  Then let His words abide in you through reading and meditating upon the Word of God.
