Trucking logs in the north Maine woods in the winter months can be hazardous. I was fully loaded with hardwood logs destined for Canada when I approached a steep hill that wasn’t sanded. Almost to the top, the truck no longer had traction. Fortunately, I was able to hold it steady as I backed down, using my west coast mirrors. Looking it over, I decided to try climbing once again… bad decision. Almost to the top again, the truck decided it had had enough of me and developed a mind of its own. Halfway down, it decided to turn sideways and roll over.
You’re right. It was a big mess. Logs were strewn everywhere. That GMC was now resting on its side with the operator shaking in places he’d never shaken before.
The road of life has many hazards and one never knows what a day might bring forth. Beware when the load is heavy and it doesn’t look like you are going to have much traction.
Proverbs 15:24
The road of the godly leads upward, leaving hell behind.
Look it over well; make an educated decision based on the Word of God, and like a trucker would say, “Keep the shiny side up.”
Think about it.
