Episode Details

We’ve had to buy several new things recently — a new car, a new hot water heater, and a new air conditioner. Because of the unanticipated expenses and hassles, I must say that purchasing new things is getting old!

It’s easy to take for granted a car that transports you around, a cool house on a summer day, a hot shower in the morning. When things go wrong, however, we realize the value of the things we depend on for convenience and comfort. Likewise, we often take for granted the life- sustaining gifts we have in Jesus. At no cost to us, Jesus continually creates in us a clean heart, forgiving our sins and leading us by His Spirit. Each day we receive these gifts anew. They are blessings that never get old!
