Mitsubishi Eclipse versus Ford Expedition

I was helping Jemel my PT friend who is moving to another state and during the times of moving and loading, I had the opportunity to drive his Ford Expedition and his Kuya’s sports car Mitsubishi Eclipse. And have you ever seen a good sports car? These cars are low and sleek. The eclipse has a V6 engine and it can probably hit 180 KPH. They are fast, responsive and nice to drive. But in spite of all these strengths, they also have weaknesses. First, the Eclipse can only hold approximately 2-4 persons. They are not really comfortable, especially when the top is down. There is not much comfort because the suspension is low to the ground and you cannot go to grocery because there is not much place to put the groceries. While the Ford Expedition, it has a big trunk area, it could fit probably 6-8 people. It sits up high off the ground; it has plenty of luggage area. And when I drove it, I felt like I was the king of the road. You can take your children and the whole barangay to school. But then again, there are also weaknesses of this Ford Expedition, gas consumption is higher than the V6 eclipse of course, it doesn’t have that pogi points, it is hard to find a parking spot, and the list goes on of course.

What am I saying here my friend? Each car is designed for a specific assignment, if you want some pogi points, efficient miles per gallon, easy parking, drive the Eclipse. If you are going to the grocery, take the kids to shopping, drive the Expedition. Each vehicle functions best when it is fulfilling its intended purpose. And the same is true for our lives. If we try to be something we are not, we are not going to be successful. Yes, we can go there, but we are either uncomfortable or inefficient. If we try to do others are doing, we will just get frustrated, discontented and will complain and complain and complain. But if we are to be all God has called us to be, you know your strengths and also know your weaknesses, you can function to that particular purpose in life. You will feel contentment, empowered, enable, approved, accepted and you will see the Victory that God has in store for you!
