Hubby and I were watching a documentary on the VW Bus. Did you know there are people out there in VW land who are fanatics about their VW Bus?
There is even a beginners manual explaining how to fix the vehicle from front to back – mostly back since the engine sits in the rear.

One of the men interviewed was a traveling singer. He drove his VW all around the west playing and singing in small venues. He lived in his bus, drove his bus and loved that vehicle!
He commented in the interview, “You meet a lot of good people when you’re broken down.”
How many times have you been broken-down?
If you are like me, it may be too many times to count.
Yes, I have live through many broken and dislocated situations in my little universe.
Somehow my Supreme Savior continues to pick me up, properly fix me and He fits me back together.
He leads the Resurrection Parade.
Get ready! Become a fanatic!
Let’s go to the Parade!
Colossians 1: 18-20 (MSG) He was supreme in the beginning and—leading the resurrection parade—he is supreme in the end. From beginning to end he’s there, towering far above everything, everyone. So spacious is he, so roomy, that everything of God finds its proper place in him without crowding. Not only that, but all the broken and dislocated pieces of the universe—people and things, animals and atoms—get properly fixed and fit together in vibrant harmonies, all because of his death, his blood that poured down from the cross
Stumbling into Grace 
We drove two VW buses while our kids were growing up and loved them both, except they were under-powered when it came to driving uphill . . . “slow as mollassas” and very scary! One thing is for sure, we definitely called on the Lord for His power and protection with every mountain or hill we had to climb!

Yes I learned how to drive on a VW bus and they
were slow on hills – pretty much slow all the time but many great memories
I still call on the Lord for His power and protection for
any mountain! LOL

Forgive me good friend but as I read your words here I couldn’t quit thinking of Little Miss Sunshine and how evertime the family took off, everyone had to push start the VW bus. Praise the Lord for a Savior and very mechanically inclined Friend who keeps us going through breakdowns and all. Blessings!
