" If You Are In Me, Then A New Creation Has Come And The Old Has Gone..."
Let Me Change You Where Need Be.
When your air conditioner breaks down, sometimes, it may need just a simple repair regardless of whether it’s an old model. When deciding on whether to repair an air conditioner, you have to consider some factors, like its efficiency and performance, which if it doesn’t work, you can choose to entirely replace it. Sometimes, simple repair and regular servicing are enough to keep an old unit to keep working for a few more years. However, there is no need to repair an air conditioner which keeps failing you.
My child, how often do you get to a place where you think you have to drop this habit otherwise it is dragging you behind? Like an air conditioner being repaired, you cannot always try to justify yourself and make little adjustments here and there. In your life, you have to create room for change and be ready to know when to let go of some habits. You have so much potential and I encourage you to start achieving your purpose.
Like an air conditioner which you insist on always repairing even when you know its work is done, I know it is not easy to let go of what you are used to, yet still do not lose heart. Allow me to work in your life, continually enrich yourself with my word, and with things that grow you spiritually. Though outwardly it may take time to stick to the good path, inwardly I will renew you day by day. Fix your eyes on me, I will guide you to the things that have eternal benefit. My mercies are new every morning, I will not let you go, as one would an old air conditioner, rather I will transform you with my loving kindness and show you unending grace.
Maintain Your Relationship With Me, As You Would Your Air Conditioner.
Air Conditioner Repairs will be lesser if it is well maintained, Air conditioners are so necessary and important in some areas of living because of the temperatures. Not only are they relied upon, but they are a huge investment in every home. Most people avoid the need of having to repair their air conditioner when they need it most, by making sure it’s well maintained. Some air conditioner repairs can actually damage it much more, so it is better to schedule regular maintenance visits.
My child, like all satisfying and healthy relationships, my relationship with you needs energy and time. You may be feeling distant from me and you wonder how you can approach me again to start over because we were at one point in a very good space. Like an air conditioner that needs repair for it to work, so does our relationship. It may wallow in guilt and self-blame and be so hard on yourself to get back on track, but I would rather you try to maintain this relationship from a place of love.
For us to have a well-maintained relationship, you need to talk to me. Explain your hopes, dreams, fears, and regrets. Tell me anything you want to get off your chest, now that we are focused on repairing our relationship. Like how an air conditioner is significant in a home, so is communication between us. In me, there is freedom, which comes from forgiveness. When we spend this time together, you will let go of the guilt, anger, bitterness, and resentment that may have held you captive. I want you to experience joy, which will be so abundant when you abide by me.

“And who of you by being worried can add a single hour to his life?”
