Rather hit the dust than


Yesterday was a long day but that was probably because it was Monday.  It was a good day at work but I just seemed tired, which was probably from waking up early on Fall Back Sunday.  I did not get an extra hour of sleep in fact I woke up earlier than normal on Sunday and Monday.

I worked a little later on Monday so when I left work the sun was trying to disappear though it was still light.  I was stuck in traffic for a bit.  It seemed that everyone had chosen the same time to go wherever they were going.   Maybe they were all trying to get home before the sun disappeared and left us in the dark.

I was about eight minutes from home when a truck stopped right in front of me.  My instincts took over and I swerved into the grassy, dusty area by the side of the road.  As dust swirled everywhere, that truck took off at a high rate of speed.  I am sure that they thought I was going to chase them down.  I had no intentions of doing that.  The person that was behind me waited and let me back onto the road.

Even as the dust was swirling around my car I was thanking God for His hand that protects.  If I had hit that truck it probably would have crumpled my car and maybe me.  So that is why I would rather hit the dust than wreck.  I am so glad that I am not in the dark.  God's light is always with me even  when dust is swirling.

Are you in the dark? What happens if you hit the dust?


1 John 1:7 NKJV

But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.


Romans 3:23-24NKJV

23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus,
