I just changed the strings on my guitar (put in elixirs for the first time yay!) and after much tuning, it sounds really fresh and bright...however, inevitably it will get out of tune as the strings stretch. Anyways, I looked at my old strings and seeing how dirty they are, how they've lost their brightness, I am reminded of my walk with God. So often I am like a new set of strings, bright and full of promise, sounding good, looking good but soon they get dull. Soon I forget just how much God loves me, how important His word is to me. I need to refresh, start something new, perhaps a new book in the bible or perhaps new devotional material. It is true, it is a walk with God and sometimes I get tired, I need to refresh...be a new set of strings. That's where I am now. It will take some time and pain before I can be sounding good for God, just like the new strings. For those reading this, prayer would be much appreciated!! Prayer that like my new nanoweb coated elixirs, I can last up to three times longer than other strings! And also prayer that I can make a sweet sound for God and that I will know when I need to refresh so that I don't break. After all, you can't play on broken strings...haha

elixirs are nice. they do keep their sound for longer, they keep their feel for longer too. gentler on the fingers too. may you be strengthened and nanoweb-coated to help you resist the rust and corrosive qualities of the world. keep walking!
