获取软件Dumping the Garbage in Your Life预览
In 1986, there was a sanitation strike in the city of Philadelphia. When it happened, it left piles of trash uncollected and unaddressed. Soon, the trash became a health hazard to the city. That’s when a ship called the Pelicano was brought in. Nearly thirty tons of trash, some of it burned and fuming with toxic ash, were placed on board this freighter.
Because the trash had become so toxic, the Pelicano had nowhere to go. No country would allow it to dock because no nation wanted to allow the toxic waste into their space. So, for two years the Pelicano floated on the sea looking for a place to rest. The only permission it was ever granted during that time was to stop and refuel so that it could go on its way.
A lot of us are like this Pelicano in more ways than we might even know. Life can heap garbage and trash upon us until it accumulates into something toxic. We might briefly dock at church to refuel, but we leave church carrying the same heavy weight we had when we walked in.
Our only freedom is found when we give it to Him.
