BLOGGER TEMPLATES - TWITTER BACKGROUNDS

Monday, May 24, 2010

This morning I was on my way to a destination and I came upon a red light. While I waited I checked my rear view mirror to see how my hair looked and if I had too much powder on. I took a kleenex and gentley wiped my face....

As I was setting the kleenex down, I heard this loud, strange noise...almost like a fog horn, I've never heard before. I was already past the train tracks....I looked all around me for this strange noise. It was when I looked again in the rear view mirror that I saw this humongous semi right behind me. Glancing forward I looked at the green arrow...now accompanied by a green light. How long had I been sitting here?

In the same way there are times in my Spiritual life that I get distracted with a variety of things...especially life's "mirror" thinking, "this will just take a moment". But in reality, it takes much longer than I anticipated and I find myself adding on more things to do, while I'm waiting.....leading me way off track.

But thankfully, God's vehicle is so much larger than the semi that was behind me and He's there in my view.....I praise God that He isn't afraid to give me that "wake up" call...to get me moving on the right path once again....
