Greetings!
My daughter, Shelby, is a student driver. No, you don't have to stop driving but do be on the lookout for a large blue or burgundy SUV! Shelby is actually doing very well but does need constant reminders of safe driving techniques.
Last week, Shelby was driving with her mother through a crowded parking lot. Shelby assumed that she had the right of way at an interesction because she had it going the opposite direction (I know it confuses me as well). When her mother shouted "what are you doing" as Shelby blew through the intersection, Shelby simply stated, "I have the right of way". After God's parting of the vehicles, Mom calmed down and asked, "what happens if you are coming the other way?" Shelby stated, "I have the right of way that way too!" Kim was floored and instructed Shelby about the impossibility of having the right of way no matter where you are driving! Lesson learned.
Sometimes we live as if we always have the right of way. There is only One that is always Right and His name is Jesus! Our King and Savior always has the right of way but we often live like we do!
