Ride of Your Life


A 21 year old man was taken for the ride of his life recently. His wheelchair got stuck in the grill of an 18 wheeler. The truckdriver never saw the man and continued down the streets, reaching speeds of up to 55 mph. After being pushed for about 4 miles, the truckdriver finally was pulled over. The man was not hurt. He even had a sense of humor about the scary ordeal, saying he now knew what riding in his wheelchair at 55 miles per hour is like. I was thinking about how often times in life we are being pushed along. We aren't experiencing Life at it's Fullest, as Jesus described it. We are just being pushed or dragged through life. We aren't in control of our emotions, our relationships, etc. We are just along for the ride. God wants you to live life to its fullest, he doesn't want you to just be pushed along down the highway of life. So get a grip on life. Live life and live it to its fullest!
