I had a moment of clarity while driving to work this morning.  I was stuck behind someone who was going about 25 mph.  Sure the roads were bad because it was snowing, but I don't think there's much of a difference between going 30 and going 25.  I wanted to go 30.  But then I was thinking and came to the conclusion that perhaps this person was driving slowly in front of me for a reason.  Maybe it's to keep me safe.  Maybe it's so I don't get another speeding ticket.  Maybe the road will suddenly blow up in front of this person and will engulf their car in a fiery ball of mayhem, leaving my car untouched.  Whatever the reason, maybe God has a plan.  I have to remember that more often. 

I came to this realization a few times in the past.  As I'm driving behind someone who's going slower than I'd like, I think about passing them over the double yellow lines.  But then I think, Maybe there's a cop up ahead just waiting to give me a ticket.  Maybe there's a reason why I'm stuck in unfavorable situations. #religion
