THE LORD IS LIKE A TOW TRUCK
Have you ever considered that the lord is similar to a tow truck? I mean when you look at this picture you obviously see the cross on the back, but what does a tow truck really do? When you are in the worst possible neighborhood, sitting on the side of the freeway, or scorching in the middle of a hot summer day because your mode of transportation is broken, the tow truck is only a quick call away. Sometimes they will take a while to get there and help you in your dilemma, other times you have to wait. Eventually though the tow truck will get you to where you need to go.
What about when we do things to ourselves? Like lock our keys in our car for example? AAA comes down with the slim jim to come unlock the door through the window and opens the car for us.
The lord is similar. When we need him all we have to do is pray and ask for his help. Many times his help won't be immediately and we will have to wait, other times it will be as soon as we ask for it. No matter what the timing is though, the lord still shows up and delivers to us what we need most. Although many times it won't be what we ask for, it will be what we need.
The lord is also similar to a tow truck when we do things because of our own stupidity. He comes and fixes our mess and allows us to eventually get to where we need to go.
So what is the point? The point is that no matter what our situation, the lord is always waiting patiently for us to call on him. Although he would prefer for us to talk to him all of the time, he will still be waiting for us to call on him when we are in trouble and most things we can't do alone.
