Walking together on the same pathway, we experience the same thing. Sometimes we forget that, I know I do. I am learning not to criticize other people for what they’re going through at the time because I may go through that same experience tomorrow. | |||
Click here to read the first 75 lines of the story The next morning my wife had to go down to the store to get a few groceries. As she shut the door behind her, she said to me, “I guess I'm going to have to drive carefully.” Then she snickered again. A little over an hour later, she returned, and when she came in the door, I noticed something was wrong. I asked her if anything was wrong, and all she said, "No, nothing's wrong. I'll take care of it.” I knew by her demeanor, something was wrong, and something she really did not want me to know. That perked my curiosity. In a few minutes, I looked out the window and there she was with a bucket of water washing the front of her van. I had my suspicions, which proved correct. When she came in the front door, I was waiting for her and said, “Any Love Bug problem?” With that, I not only snickered, but I laughed out loud hilariously. “Maybe,” I said between laughing, “you should drive a little more carefully.” Her stare informed me that she did not think it was funny, which made it even funnier for me. Thinking about that, I remembered what the prophet Amos once said. “Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” (Amos 3:3). Walking together on the same pathway, we experience the same thing. Sometimes we forget that, I know I do. I am learning not to criticize other people for what they're going through at the time because I may go through that same experience tomorrow. Tweet
