Dale Ridge church of Christ

I brought a bran new ATV. my kids have always wanted one, it is very nice looking, green, 4×4 on command, front racks and back rack, snow plow, electric start, automatic, forgot to tell you I brought it back in 1996, not so green anymore, finders, running board are broken but still serves a purpose, 4 wheel drive still works  “I think” orginal tires are worn out, this atv has been rolled over, flipped over, hit trees, and has been through some pretty ruff terrain, I started to get rid of it but decided to do a fixer upper !.  order new running board, new front rack, electric start is working now, new tires front and back, shifter rebuilt by the help of a great friend at church (Bill Adams), shifts better than it did when new.  This ATV now does what it was intended to do when I brought it new,  with just a few new parts and some time spent to repair it is almost as good as new,,the more I do the better it looks,  The church is a hole lot like my ATV, all terrain,,it seems like sometimes we want to dis-card the church when things started getting a little ruff, or when things don’t go their way remembering all along that the more “WE” do, the better the church looks, If life get ruff, put it in 4 wheel drive and keep moving forward, don’t always take the clear and easy path.  Ever heard of the saying “If it was easy everybody would be doing it”  makes me wonder why there aren’t more christians in the world.  Keep the faith.
