The light was yellow. A big truck was in my rear view mirror. I had to decide fast. Slam on the brakes or go on through? I went on through. The light turned red. Was the camera watching? Will I receive a ticket in the mail? If I had stopped in time, would the truck have done the same?
We all face yellow lights in life. Sometimes we make the right decision. Sometimes we don’t. The consequences aren’t always a reliable indicator of a good decision. We may never know what the outcome of the “un-chosen” option would be. So, we pray, we listen, we do our best, and we keep driving, forgetting what is behind, and pressing on toward the goal.
