A young boy was standing in the middle of the block, not on the corner. A businessman saw him and told him that the bus wouldn’t stop in the middle of the block. “You need to go to the corner where there is a bus stop,” he said.
But the boy just replied, “I have lots of faith that the bus will pick me up right here.”
About that time, a bus came down the street, and it came right up to the little boy, and the door opened. As he stepped onto the bus, the boy turned to the man and said, “Mister, the bus driver is my daddy.”
When your Daddy is your bus driver, everything else falls into place. The boy’s faith was not in the bus but in the driver. For us, the bus represents what we can see, feel, and measure. Sometimes, our bus doesn’t seem to be on time or in the right place.
That is when we need to trust the Driver.
Recovery Step: The apostles prayed, “Lord, increase our faith” (Luke 17:5). May we join that prayer today, trusting in the One behind the wheel.
