He's still tweaking on me.

Tweak: to fine tune or adjust. Yes He is still working on me, to make me what I ought to be... I got up this morning thinking about that song and a telephone conversation I had with a friend last night. PTL He still tweaks me but sadly that I must be tweak'd on. I was telling my friend that it's my little wired-up belief that He originally wired us just how He wants us. All the little funny ways and habits we have, all the ways of our personalities, all to His setting by His control box. He knows our wiring system like NO ONE else does, after all, it's His system. But this morning, I was thinking about our wiring and the need for tweak'g. My wires get crossed more than they should. My wires get corroded. My wires break. My wires spark out. There are days that I get the wrong repair and it shuts the system down. I don't call on the right repairman. I pull out some good ole' southern ingenuity and try to repair it myself. I let sin seep in corrode my wiring system. It's like that song Slow Fade by Casting Crowns. It's not like I just jump into a vat of sin, but it seeps in over time when I'm distracted or when my wiring system isn't up to par. Then my wires get corroded and nasty. My life gets out of control. Anxieties and doubt kick in. Excuses start. Easy fixes win. Sight is clouded. Thoughts are not pure. The right actions are lessened. Yes, I'm a tad thick-headed and sometimes it takes all the above for me realize the ONLY way to remove all that crude built up on my wiring is J-e-s-u-s. He is the original 3M contact cleaner! He removes my corrosion. He restores my wiring. He repairs my system. There is no system He can't repair. My thoughts are back on the right path. I see easy fixes aren't the cure. I kick my excuses. I close out my doubt and anxiety. My sight is focused. My life becomes grounded again.

Jeremy and I both love to people watch. Jeremy more so because he usually takes a bench in the mall while I'm taking care of important household chores like closet management! :) I get a kick out of people. Just to watch and see all the different wiring systems out there. People are unique and sometimes just plainly speaking... strange. But strange to me, not my God. Those strange ones are His system too. We're all from the same factory, just different models. All the models need a good tweak'g every now and again. So this morning, yes my heart is singing He is still working on me, to make me what I ought to be! Am I ashamed that He must tweak me, Yes. But am I eternally thankful that He is there when I call on Him to tweak me, FOR SURE!
