So if you're driving, I hope this short article that I'm gona share with you will bless you.
Me?
I don't have a car yet. I never had one neither ..ever! But right I'm taking the liberty of preparing myself for my new Lamborghini.. heheheh!
(Joke but please say AMEN!)
"SANITY FIRST AID"
A little pause and quite spot in your mind go a long way. Road warriors who are easily riled can try
taping soothing verses onto the car dashboard. Or memorise your favourite verses.
Take a scriptural pill!
PATIENCE
Cover yourself with the blood of Christ each morning before starting your day with Matthew 26:28.
Add to the prayer and ask God for patience with 1 Timothy 6:11.
And to guard your heart and arteries against anger, try Proverbs 4:23 while you're on the road.
PEACE
If impatience and anger are chronic emotional hotspots for you, have ready a favourite verse for when
tensions run high behind the wheel. Try verses on peace from Psalm 29:11 and Isaiah 26:3,4 or you can simply proclaim you are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus from 2 Corinthians 5:21, Philippians 3:8-10
SERENITY
Feel the tension rising?
Maintain a restful mind, just say out loud, "This is the day that the Lord has made, we can rejoice and be glad in it." Whatever happens on the road, happens!
We don't need to call on God only when we need help.
He enjoys our company (Psalm 149:4) and driving is a wonderful opportunity to spend more time with Him. Pop an uplifting worship album into your CD player and enjoy the journey.
God will take care of the rest of your day.
