Trains and Steering Wheels

Trains go through our town will regular frequency. One passenger train goes through late night/early morning and all others are freight trains going through. One day, I was looking into the window of the engine cars to see if there was an engineer in each of the three locomotives pulling the cars. A random thought went through my mind; “Is there a steering wheel in the locomotive car?”

I did not think there was, but was not entirely certain. A Google search confirmed the cars ride on rails and cannot go anywhere other than where the rails are leading.

God has a destiny for each of us that is similar to rails. Follow His will and His ways and all is fine. Try to go your own way and life derails.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
