Hot things Hot

A youth goes into a store and sees a shiny object. She asks the clerk, "What is that shiny object?" The clerk replies, "That is a thermos." The youth then asks, "What does it do?" The clerk responds,?"It keeps hot things hot and it keeps cold things cold."
The youth says, "I'll take it!"
The next day, she walks into work with her new thermos.
Her boss sees her and asks, "What is that shiny object you have?"
She said, "It's a thermos."
The boss then says, "What does it do?"
She replies, "It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold."
The boss said, "Wow, what do you have in it?"
The youth replies, "Two cups of coffee and a Popsicle."

Unfortunately a lot of us are like this in our spiritual lives. We want to be both hot and cold, both worldly and spiritual. In trying to walk the line we wind up with neither... we wind up a lukewarm mess! Revelation 3:15-16 says "I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm--neither hot nor cold--I am about to spit you out of my mouth."

So what's in the thermos of YOUR life?
