Shifting the Gears of Life

Alan Masters and his wife Jan are hosting today's episode of Perilous World Radio. Alan starts by drawing a comparison between the gears of a manual transmission and life itself. He explains that life is like shifting gears; sometimes, we move forward, and other times we move backward.

Those who struggle to get it right and "grind" their gears can't escape this reality. Our lives are like engines that require fuel to keep us going, maintenance to keep us running, and faith to guide us.

We sometimes get stuck in one gear as we shift through life's challenges. Sometimes, our engine may stall or cut out, but we put it back in gear, start, and go. “Never give up, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn.” “We are never defeated unless we give up on God.” 1. Psalm 31:24
