Steady!

During a recent visit with my daughter’s family in Colorado, I had the “opportunity” to go sledding with my granddaughter. My instinct would have been to overcompensate steering down the bumpy, steep hill. However, heeding the advice of my experienced son-in-law, I remained steady and glided down successfully! Trusting my son-in-law’s advice meant following his directions rather than my own instincts. That was the key to my safety. Likewise, I have a Savior, experienced with hardship and suffering, who is steadfast and faithful to me in all circumstances. So, no matter how rough the ride in this life, I don’t have to rely on my own instincts or plans to get out of trouble. Instead, I can remain steady, turn to Jesus and trust Him to carry me through all of life’s trials.
