BUCKETS WITH HOLES

 
Hebrews 2:1
 
"We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away." NIV
 
"Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip." KJV
 
How many of us are like a bucket with a hole in it or a barrel with cracks between the staves? The Word of God repeatedly tells us to be alert, be on guard. If we become comfortable in our spiritual experience, we are in danger of complacency (being satisfied and unaware of danger), and the spiritual maturity and strength we have received will seep out of us like the bucket with a hole in it. That is a dangerous place to be. It will reveal the true child of God from the imitation.
 
Heavenly Father, forgive us for letting our guard down. Heal the holes and cracks in our spiritual lives so that we will be true children of Your Kingdom. Give us attentive hearts and make us strong so we can help others do the same. We pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
