FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS

The story is told of an old man who was wandering in the desert looking for water. He approached an old shack and on the porch area he found a water pump. Next to the water pump he saw a one gallon jug. A note on the jug said, “Use all the water to prime the pump.” The man’s instincts said to drink the water and not trust the pump. Nevertheless he poured the water into the pump and began pumping until an abundance of cool water came to the top.

The Bible is like the note on that water jug. Sometimes the instructions contained in the Bible do not make sense to us, but it is always right.
