In 1995 the Discovery space shuttle was grounded.
It wasn’t grounded because of funding. It wasn’t grounded because of a major technology problem.
It was grounded because of a woodpecker.
A whole group of woodpeckers found out the exterior fuel tank had this foaming on them. And they loved to peck that foam away.
But that foam was to protect those tanks and if the foam is not there the tanks can over heat.
It becomes a fire hazard.
So the whole project is grounded by a woodpecker.
Here’s what I think when it comes to relationships…
That it isn’t just the big things that hurt our relationships, but the reality is that most of the time it is the little woodpeckers that hurt our relationship.
This week at COTC we will learn to be alert to things, even the little things that can come into our marriage and ground our marriage. It is a message that can be applied to all relationships regardless of marital status.
If you’re married you’ll receive some practical helps to protect your marriage…
If you’re single you might be married in the future or God may give you the opportunity to help someone, who is about to make a poor decision that will effect their marriage and their family.
