Truckstops, a place where one stops to rest and most importantly refuel. What happens if you don't refuel? You run out of gas. In life we sometimes get too caught up in things that we forget to refuel. I'd never thought it was a big deal until recently I, myself, ran out of gas. I went to a Newsong concert, and if you've never seen them, I strongly suggest you try. Anyways, I went and in the show I wasn't as excited as I should've been. I mean, here's my favorite band literally 10 feet in front of me. It was when they played a song called "Rescue" that I realized what was wrong. I'd for so long been putting on this disguise of a Christian. I went to church, led the songs, read my bible and doing the good Christian things. But that's it. I wasn't living for Him anymore. I was simply showing off for others. But as I sang the chorus, "I need you Jesus, come to my rescue. Where else can I go?... This world has nothing for me. I will follow you" it finally came clear. I wept right there for I knew I was changed. Life since has been great. So next time you're feeling empty inside, find your own truckstop and take the time to refuel.
