Take the wheel

August 13, 2009

Jesus, take the wheel

take it from my hand,

cause i can’t do this, on my own

I’m letting go, so give me one more chance

save me from this road i’m on…

so, i passed my driving test today. (1st attempt!) finally, after all the lessons and the travelling to ubi in the mornings, all the demoralising situations where i mounted kerbs, knocked down a pole, strike kerbs, obstructed traffic on roads… and let me tell you smth ok? really only by grace from God that i could pass today.

firstly, i striked the kerb because i reversed too much for “directional change” but i wasn’t penalised for it at all. only a stern look and a “why you reverse so much for what?” secondly, i got the worse test route ever… the one that faces the heaviest traffic and biggest road, and and i wld have to remain on the left (say bye to ‘lame’ (lane) discipline) then filter into a different lane because of bus lane timings, all of that within a short distance. (thank God for the old taxi driver that gave way) hhaa, and the tester got frustrated halfway because  i think i asked too many silly questions. but at the end of it, i scored 18pts. 20 would have constituted me a failure.

anyway, if you didnt understand all of those, the bottomline is that my God is good. and i can count on Him to keep me safe on the roads. ( it’s quite a huge responsibility i think… thye made us watch this gory video abt consequences of irresponsible driving.) praise God!

i’m really happy! :) hopefully i will get to drive the car a bit before school starts on tues. and ya, perhaps driving a few months before i start attempting to drive other pple… hahah, i think driving on the highway is going to be interesting.
