We own a beautiful, handcarved music stand that was made in France. It is an expensive item, that draws many a compliment. However, it has one big problem. The tripod of legs does not hold its ground, and invariably the stand becomes unstable and topples over.
Today, I spoke with the person who sold us this music stand. He picked the stand up, spun around each leg of the tripod and locked it in place, solving the problem. Apparently, he'd had the same problem with his music stand and called the manufacturer in France to ask for guidance on solving the problem.
This music stand was designed to hold its ground, yet it was not doing so because of improper use. Are we using our time and talents properly, so that we can stand our ground for Christ? If not, our Manufacturer knows how to solve this problem. We need to call upon Him and ask for guidance and wisdom to stand firm.
