When things are not in correct alignment, they are just "off kilter." They do not mesh well, give a smooth ride or get to their intended goal. Another example of this is teeth. Many children need braces to align their teeth into a proper biting position. Or, in the sports world, putting is an example. You have to line that golf ball up with the hole to sink the putt. If you are off the mark- another stroke (or more) is the price you pay.
Spiritual alignment is also important. We may profess Jesus as our savior and quote scripture, but do our actions line up with our words? Do we just admonish others to pray, attend worship, read the Bible and serve others, or do we put our theories into practice? We will be spiritually out of alignment if our actions don't reflect what God has placed in our hearts. Mouth service is not enough. God has called us to live the life of love, walking through each obstacle we face with patience and living our lives with a outstretched hand to those in need. Let's get in line with God's plan for us…. Being in correct alignment with God doesn't make Him love us more, but it sure makes our time on this earth more rewarding and fulfilling.
