I'm a married man with an awesome loving wife, great parents, and great siblings.
My background is something that reminds me of what life is. To me it's not mainly the destination that counts, but the journey. With all the bad stuff such as the breakdowns, the flat tires, the accidents, the annoying slow people, the traffic jams, the delays, and the good stuff like the scenery, the fast lanes, smooth roads, the people we see/meet everyday. It's the journey of life that shapes and makes us into who we are, and who God wants us to be.
Have you ever wondered where your life was going? Ever wondered why things happen the way they do? Ever tried to drive yourself to your destination with great success in the beginning, but in the end you get into an "accident"? It's funny how people experience this, but still get back on the wheel and keep trying with fruitless results. God is the only one who can take the wheel from us and make the road seem so much smoother.
I know my point seems all cliched in an almost stereotypical way of Christianity, but it's very true because I and many other people have experienced first hand what life is like when we let God take control, or when we try to do it ourselves. The difference is impossible to miss. ;
