Sermon Illustrations

(Ill.) I tend to be a tosser when something doesn’t work, I will toss it out, I will buy a replacement. So when the lawn mower stops working, I take it out to the garbage and go buy a new one. But we have a neighbor who is wonderfully skilled in repairing things. So he will come out and grab the lawn mower, pitter around for a few hours, and bring back a working lawn mower.

God does not toss us out - rather he is in the business of rebuilding us into what he wants us to be.
