When I stand on my front porch during the winter, when leaves have fallen, I have an excellent view of
the interstate, I-459. It is an amazing sight, especially at nighttime when all the vehicles have their lights
on.  There is a steady flow of cars, trucks, 18-wheelers, motorcycles, and motor homes. And when I say
steady, I mean it. I have tried counting them over a 30 second period, but they are so numerous and so
fast that I lose track. 
But it’s not the cars that I concerned with.  Every vehicle had at least one person in it and I dare say most
had more than that.  That is an enormous number of people. As I watch them zoom by, I wonder about
them.  Where are they going…and why?  Where have they been and what were they doing? Who are
the people in the cars and what is their life like?  Is a divorced dad on his way to pick his kids for “his
weekend”? Is someone going to work at a job they hate? Or better, perhaps a family going out to eat to
celebrate a birthday, or a young couple having a “date night”.  Perhaps someone is going home after a
long day and looking forward to some rest. 
The fact is, there are a lot of possible scenarios, too many to imagine. But here is another fact; a more
important one:  God knows what everyone is going through, no matter what it is, and He is the reason
for joy and happiness and the solution for every problem. During good times, celebrate Him and rejoice
in Him.  During the dark times, turn to Him and rest in Him.  He has made the promise that He will not
leave us or forsake us. 
So, as I look at all the traffic rushing up and down the highway, I wonder how each person is relating to
God…how each person is relying on Him in their particular situation.
Say good things about your Savior and His church.
