The Master Connection

A few weeks ago, my friend and I took a day road trip. We had a blast! We are both music guru's so we were very upset when the aux input distorted the music every time we plugged in one of our iPods. The connection made the song fuzzy and very low in volume. We could hardly understand the lyrics. This was very frustrating. How were we going to take turns playing our favorite songs for each other? Finally, I remembered that a new iPod connection cable had come with my car. We got it out of the glove compartment and plugged it in. With anticipation, we pressed play and the song came out loud and clear. Way too excited! All along we were plugged into the wrong connection.

What are you plugged into that's causing so much static in your life? Negative people, reality shows, social networks or your own thinking. All of these connections can cause our lives to seem hopeless and lacking peace. We get perspective from what we are plugged into and we make decisions based on what we are plugged into. Yes, my guilty pleasure is "The Housewives" too, but that show can’t give me sound advice for my life amongst all of the confusion. My advice to all of us, including myself, is to plug into theword of God. The biblical connection is the most fulfilling, peaceful and sustaining life that we could ever plug into. I've found that the more I'm on the internet, the more shows I TiVo and the more I pick up my smart phone, the less time I make for God; the more my world seems like it's in shambles. My mind is busy on the wrong things and my perspective is way off. I don't feel like myself. I can't hear the lyrics to God's tune and the noise around me seems louder than God's voice. We must take the time to plug into the word of God, so we can get a clear sound from above. We need the master connection. Life is too short for static!
