TITI: Ble what is it with you self? Why all this "I don't know" of a thing? Answer me johr..
BLE: Hmmm... GOD IS DRIVING.
TITI: What has "God is driving" got to do with all the questions I have been asking you since? Mtcheew
BLE: Here, lemme give you a word picture of what I meant by "God is driving".
I was to embark on a journey to a place I have never been to before.
I got to the park and told the drivers I want a very experienced driver who would drive me safely to my destination.
After waiting for some minutes, I was directed to a car.
Seated behind the wheel of the car was an elderly man whose demeanor told me "gurl you are in safe hands.. "
I entered and the journey started.
We kept going and somehow I got anxious and curious. A lot of questions about the Journey filled up my mind.
So.. I started questioning the Man.
"Hello, how close are we to my destination?
What if there are mountains and hills along the road? How are we gonna climb with this little car?" I queried.
Suddenly, the man made a turn to another road. The road seems so rough, yes I could feel that.
I asked why he made the sudden turn to that new rough road. I was beginning to panic..
Then the man looked at me and said,
"Hey Young lady! Relax, I AM...Be still and know that I am God. Its me driving you"
I gasped... Oh mine! GOD'S DRIVING!
Immediately I fell back to the car seat, Kicked off my shoes and stretched my legs.
I shouted, "Waoooo! God is driving!"
Then, I told Him,
God,
I don't care any longer how rough the road.
I don't care how fast we are going nor how slow the journey seems..
I don't need to bother about when and how I will get there.
I don't care what unexpected turns You are making.. Or whether You are driving through a dark and scary tunnel..
No I don't care. You know why?
Of course! Because God is driving, and as long as it is God behind this wheel.. Then, I am more than sure that I will get to my destination safe and also at the right time!
So.. Titi, I really may not have a definite answer to all your probings. But I know and can boldly say..
GOD IS DRIVING!!! 🤗
How about you? Who is driving you? 🤨
Well, I hope its God...
