My wife and I have just finished a drive across the country. We saw plenty of speeders and aggressive drivers. It was enough to make you utter a prayer of thanks when we arrived in our driveway.
We take a lot of factors for granted when we hit the highway.
- We depend on the vehicle we are driving
- We rely on a highway in good repair
- We hope and pray the other drivers are competent and able to safely operate their vehicles (despite evidence to the contrary)
We are less in control than we would like to admit. I am thankful we made it back and that our prayers were answered. I am also thankful there is another day to practice some safe, assertive driving.
As we venture out, let’s try to be the answer to someone’s prayer, instead of the reason someone has, out of fear, urgently stepped up their prayer life!
