Give a 16 year old a car and their world changes. It totally opens up. Take away the keys from an aging parent, and their world closes in around them. Give a Christian a car and you run the risk of total moral failure.
I am beginning to believe that a car is like a truth serum. Give a person a car and who they really are comes out.
We all have streaks of selfishness, we all think what we are doing is so very important, and when we are in a car, it is on display for all to see. People plaster their cars with crosses and such and then drive like they are possessed.
What if we all made the commitment to go the speed limit. I think that would be the Christian thing to do.
What if instead of telling people that we were Christians, we drove like we were Christians? Christian music playing from the radio and fish on the tailgate are no substitute for love, joy peace, and patience even when we are in a hurry.
Cars are evil. They make good people do crazy things.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
