Trust

You don't hit the horn because they are turning into the lane you're not driving in, going the same direction, but you trust that they are going to stay in your lane. So you continue at the same speed. If you didn't trust them, you would honk your horn and slow down. Slightly trusting would be to place your hand on the horn preparing to honk if needed and maybe lifting your foot off the accelerator.
We've all watched the shriners with their fez hats and their little motorcycles. They are in the local parade and all of a sudden they go into figure eight pattern. They zip in and out looking as if they are going to run into each other. But again, they trust each other and they know their partners will be where they are supposed to be when they are supposed to be.
What's the operative reason for this? I can give it to you in one word. Trust. They trust each other. We trust the person turning into the opposite lane. When there is trust, things continue on the way they have been. When there is no trust, we hit the brake, we slow down, everything comes to a relative standstill.
We used to sing the song, "Trust and Obey." We don't sing it anymore because it's "old school." That's a shame because as has been noted by several blogs lately the old songs often have wonderful words. "Trust and obey, for there's no other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey." Notice when we trust, we don't panic, things go smoothly, there is no braking or slowing down. The Psalmist said, "Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you." Psalm 9:10. I hope your day is a good one. JW
