A young man named Aziza who suffers a seizure disorder shared with me recently his 49th seizure experience in 6years and said,"when it started,my parents took me to religious leaders for prayers,the best of hospitals but when it persisted I had to seek God PERSONALLY and I found him that's why my faith keeps me strong till date".

Aziza's found faith became,"...the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things ADAEZE,MIKE and AZIZA are yet to see (HEBREWS 11:1). Challenges are bound to befall us as Christians and at a certain time, we have to change frequency from "Our Father" to "My Father".This reason is simple as our faith can be compared to a vehicle with a manual transmission where we need to clutch down constantly to increase speed(faith in this context) however we require an automatic transmission(which entails a constant growth in our faith that why ROMANS 10:17 says it only comes by hearing the word). The greatest of students do extra study and take home assignments and in same vein, our 1-5 hour(s) service(s) on Sunday cannot get us that 'personal connection' with God that Aziza found as a young man which was a fertile ground for faith to grow.

I was looking for car topics and this one came up.
I was a little surprised to see this analogy so now I have to respond.

I don’t think this analogy is correct.
Since I have been driving manual transmission for 15 years I would say that it’s a lot better in handling, speed and the control.
Automatic transmission drives based on terrain and what the programmers thought it was ”best” but in manual transmission you’re deciding whats best which is why on corners or initial start manual can be a lot better.

With manual you’re also more connected to the car you’re almost one with the car as opposed to the automatic where you can take your foot out the window.

I don’t drive manual anymore because I’m old now but I do miss it and I haven’t lost the instincts when I do drive one occasionally.
