If I had fallen asleep and suddenly woken up on a roller
coaster, what would I feel? Well, I would feel trapped
and sick, terrified of every bend, wanting to get off.
However, if I believe that the track is my destiny and
that God is in charge of the machine, then the nightmare
becomes something thrilling. It became exactly what it is,
a roller coaster, a safe, reliable toy, which will
eventually stop, but, while the journey lasts, I must look at
the surrounding landscape and whoop with excitement.
