From Donny Marion at Shark Bites discipleship class- Praise Chapel Sacramento, CA-
The mark of a good tradesman are his tools and how well he takes care of them. A finish carpenter is going to have different types of tools than a framer even though their trades are in the same area of work.
An electrician and an electronics tech both work with electricity but with a whole lot of different tools . The same goes with a house painter and someone who paints a car . They both paint but their tools differ .
Each knows how to use their tools and each should know what is needed to take care of their tools . They always told me the first sign of a good mechanic was how clean he kept his tools .
We need to think of being a disciple as a trade, and think of our life as a toolbox. What’s in our toolbox? If it is filthy and filled with trash not much good is going to come out . Remember the old proverb, garbage in garbage out . We need to clean out the toolbox and fill it with clean fresh tools.
