Oops!

We were driving down the road in St Lucia the other day and we came upon this site.  Yikes!  A gas truck had tried to get into the gas station to fill the underground tanks.  It must have cut the corner a little too close and the pavement over the ditch must have been a little too thin.  The pavement actually collapsed under the weight of the truck and the wheel fell in the ditch!  They brought in a front end loader to try to lift it out of the ditch.  That didn't seem like too good of an idea to me.  One spark and KaBoom!!!  We got out of there as fast as we could.

How does this apply to you and me?  Well, it is never a good idea to cut corners!  We need to stay as far away from danger and temptation as possible.  We also need to stay on firm ground.  Make sure that the path we are taking is solid.  Another thing we need to remember is that we can make a bad situation worse by trying to rectify the situation in the wrong way.  If you find yourself in trouble, stop and think.  Pray and ask for help from people who know.  There is a solution to every problem.  And with the help of the Lord and those who love you, all problems can be fixed in the right way.

We love YOU and hope you are keeping the commandments.
