When
this blog first began, it started with sharing object lessons taught to me by
God. Here is another one for you.
There
is this three-sectioned frying pan that I enjoy using, from time to time,
because it cuts down on dishwashing. Whenever food is warmed in it, there is a
tendency for it to burn, in the center where the three parts join. This had occurred
and I had filled the pan with water, to help its washing to be easier.
Now
it’s time to wash dishes. I have a double sink, with a garbage disposal on one
side. I filled the other side with dish water and had completed all of the
other dishes, when I remembered the frying pan, filled with water. Under normal
circumstances, I would have just poured the water, with its floating debris
down the sink with the garbage disposal and let the disposal eat up the
garbage. But alas, the disposal was not working and the other sink was still
filled with good wash water. What to do?
Very
carefully, I picked up the pan determined to walk it down the hall, to the
bathroom. As, I picked up the pan and watched the water move toward its edge, I
realized that I would have to move very slowly, in order to keep all of its
contents contained.
As I
moved very carefully, it was if I could hear the Spirit of the Lord speaking to
me. “Virginia,” said the Spirit, “God is about to bless you abundantly and just
like you are having to move very carefully, while transporting this full pan of
water that it does not spill, so you will need to move, when the blessings
begin to flow. The one thing that you’ll need to do is ‘keep your eyes on Jesus’
and you will meet with success.”
Thankfully,
the mission of transporting that full pan of water was done without spilling
one drop. Praise God for the object lesson and thank God for the successful
out! Hallelujah!
