Fred sat in his car,
glaring angrily at the red traffic light . . .
One minute, two minutes, three
minutes!
You would think for those little side
roads
they would have only a one-minute green
light.
There, only two cars went through all the
time
that he and the other motorists on the main
road
were waiting!
How frustrating!
Those lights always seem to turn
red
just as you drive up on them.
Behind Fred, in another car, sits
Tom.
But he does not mind the light a
bit.
It just gives him a chance to learn
another
Bible verse.
He has a new one in a little stand on
the
dashboard, and he is saying it over and
over.
By the time the light changes,
he will have another verse to use in
witnessing!
It is estimated that the average
motorist
spends 26 hours a year waiting for
traffic
signals to change.
And if Fred and Tom are average
motorists,
then Fred will spend 26 hours a
year
running his blood pressure up
in angry frustration,
and Tom will spend 26 hours a
year
memorizing God's Word so he will
be
a better servant of Jesus
Christ.
