Prayer

It was a dark and stormy night.  I was driving home from Newport Beach and after I had negotiated the transition from the 57 to the 10 and was maneuvering Kellogg Hill my car went into a hydroplane.

Huh.  Check that out.  Steering wheel doesn’t work, breaks don’t work, I’m in God’s hands now at 65 miles an hour in the dark and blindness.

So what do I do?  Do I pray to him that’s in apparent control?  Do I pray to Jesus?  Allah?

I start singing D’yer Maker at the top of my lungs over and over.  And you know what?  It totally worked cuz I’m here typing to you today.

Really, does it get better than Oh Oh Oh OH OH OH in a situation like that?
