Locking Gas Cap?

 


I bought a new truck (new to me, it’s twelve years old) this past May.  I went to Costco gas to fill up for the first time.  But when I opened the cover on the gas tank, I discovered a locking gas cap!  I looked at the key fob, and my heart sank: there was no key to the gas cap.  On a whim, I twisted the “locking” gas cap, and it came right off.  It was unlocked.  What looked like a locked gas cap was really just a locking gas cap that didn’t work.  Hey, how many times do we look like Christians, but we don’t work?  We claim to be Christ-like, but we aren’t what we claim to be.  Hey, if someone needs to know about God, can they ask you?  Or do you just look like a Christian on Sunday morning?  Are you just for show?  Hey, the Lord is looking for real Christians; not just pretend Christians.  So … are you the real thing?  If not, now would be a good time for a change.  Get real; make God proud of you.
