Heavy Foot

So…I’m not going to lie. I like speeding. One of the hardest things I’ve had to overcome with living in the Ozarks is people (by the masses might I add) that drive 2-3 miles under the speed limit! Unless of course the speed limit is 45 or under then apparently 10 over is no biggie.

For me, most of my driving life has been a reality that if your not doing 10 over your going to get run off the road, or at minimum get a evil stare from Granny as she flies by.

So, does this make speeding all right? Does my cultural drivers education make it a non-issue? Never really asked those questions, and honestly didn’t want to.

Recently however, after reading no less than three blogs that are not related to each other and being convicted of the fact that it does matter, I’m now on day two of following the letter (or number) of the law.

It is going to be a process. In fact I haven’t told Michelle about this life change yet. I can’t say that it’s made a huge difference in my life. Or even my relationship with God. But I do know this. It has given me a few more minutes of time to pray on my way to work, and I’m not as stressed when driving. So, maybe it is making a huge difference.

If I’ve heard anything from God the past few days in my time with him, it is this: the little things matter. And I think they do for this reason: it’s not the one big act of kindness we do, or preaching the best sermon ever preached; it’s in the little decisions that we find Christ!

Here are the three blogs: stuff Christians like, and rethink. All right it is only two...I can't find the third one, how many more do you need? I’ll let them make the argument. What do you think?
