Speed Bumps and Potholes

Do you dread them? Do you cringe and get angry every time you approach a bump in the road?  Or do you take a deep breath and enjoy the ride?

Life has a lot of speed bumps and potholes. Sometimes a LOT more than others. Is God surprised? No He is not. Will the road EVER smooth out? Yes indeed it will. Eventually.

In the meantime, keep your seatbelt snug, fix your eyes on Jesus and wait on Him.  Memorize one of these verses to remind yourself with every speed bump and pothole:

“May Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.”  Psalm 143:10

“Lead me, O LORD, in Your righteousness because of my enemies; make straight Your way before me.”  Psalm 5:8

“Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.”  Proverbs 3:5-6″


He guides me in the paths of righteousness for the sake of His name.”  Psalm 23:3
