God at the Controls

     I saw two car accidents today, one on my way to work and the other on the way home. Both were on side streets and not on the freeway. So, of course, I was a bit paranoid as I drove and was so relieved to be home this evening safe and sound. The drivers seemed to be unharmed, but their cars were crunched. I began to think what would I do if someone hit me in the middle of an intersection and where was my insurance card and Motor Vehicle registration?
     It's interesting how I often don't begin to plan until I see someone else having a problem. Then that problem seems more likely to happen and becomes a cause for alarm. The problem I see many having in this world today is being too dependent on themselves, their work, and their finances. Where is their insurance card when any one of those areas of confidence get crunched? Our best vehicle for motoring through life is faith in Jesus Christ and dependence on the Word of God as our navigation system.

We need God at the controls since life is not child's play.

^{Ephesians 1:11} In Him also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestined according to the purpose of Him who works all things according to the counsel of His will, ¹² that we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory.
