Check Bolts

From my friend AI

The main rotor head of a Bell Jet Ranger is only held together by two “pillow blocks” which are attached by two small ¼” bolts on each side!  In other words, the weight of the helicopter, all its occupants, the cargo, plus fuel, etc. – that WHOLE mass is held together by those ¼ inch bolts.  Those “babies” had a fault of stretching due to a bad batch in the industry.  I was the first to discover and immediately notified Bell Helicopter headquarters …”eternal vigilance” is a vital part of the aviation pilot/ technician. 

So are these “last days” of our spiritual walk with the Lord…so many things can creep in to cloud the message!  We can even allow these issues to cloud our judgment.  We so need “spot on” words of wisdom.

1 Peter 5:8

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Proverbs 4:23

Keep your heart with all vigilance, for from it flow the springs of life.

Matthew 26:41
Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Be careful out there because one loose nut might send you flying off into a tailspin. Give it some thought.

Gary
