Oldies but goodies: "The pedestrian had no idea which way to go, so I ran
over him." That, says the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, is among a list
of explanations the company has received for automobile accidents.
Others
include: "The other car collided with mine without warning me of its intention."
"I had been driving my car for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel
and had the accident."
"As I reached an intersection, a hedge sprang up,
obscuring my vision."
"I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced
at my mother-in-law, and headed over the embankment."
"The telephone
pole was approaching fast. I attempted to swerve out of its path when it struck
my front end."
"The guy was all over the road. He had to swerve a number
of times before I hit him."
"The indirect cause of this accident was a
little guy in a small car with a big mouth."
But Metropolitan says the
strangest reason of all is, "An invisible car came out of nowhere, struck my
car, and vanished."
I guess, it's a human trait that too many of us want
to justify ourselves whenever we do wrong or fail to do what we know we
should.
However, it's only when we get real and admit our mistakes that
we can learn from them, grow, and find forgiveness—from God and others.
Dear God,
please help me
to be mature
and honest enough
to admit when I make a mistake,
quit playing the blame-game,
and
accept full responsibility for all of my actions.
Thank you for hearing
and answering my prayerz
