"Do you ever get really surprised?"

Click here to listen to Dr. J0ey tell his story!

A guy in a taxi wanted to speak to the driver so he leaned forward and tapped him on the shoulder. The driver screamed, jumped up in the air, and yanked the wheel over. The car jumped the curb, demolished a lamppost and came to a stop inches from a shop window.

The startled passenger said, “I didn’t mean to frighten you. I just wanted to ask you something.”
The taxi driver said, “It’s not your fault, sir. Today’s my first day as a cab driver. For the past 25 years, I’ve been driving a hearse.”

Do you ever get really surprised by life? You know, sometimes we get so accustomed to doing life one way that when something changes, we’re really surprised. So surprised that we scream or jump up in the air, or yank ourselves over.

Well, when the dust settles, just remember that today is different from yesterday and will be different from tomorrow. The key to keeping it in the road during all this change is to ask God for help as you make a life, not just a living.
