"More than five million breakdowns could be avoided each year if motorists performed a simple and quick inspection of their tires, belts and hoses," said Ed Schatzman, of AAA Auto Club. It makes a lot of sense to change your oil and make sure your car is in good working order before you proceed to drive it.

However, have you ever considered how many of lifes 'breakdowns' could be avoided if you, yourself, were prepared? Colossians 4:2 reads..."Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart." (NLT)

As we embark onto the new year of 2004...God's desire for you is to prepare for each new day with prayer. This is because prayer is a spiritual check up of how everything in your life is running. It can help you avoid sinning and missing God's will.

As you begin your journey each day in this new year...do a spiritual check up and pray. When you are devoted in prayer - - you will find that everything in your life will run better!

"Refreshment in Refuge" from Gina Burgess
