Dear God Above,
Bless this truck I drive and help me keep someone alive. Be my mortal sight this day, on street where little children play. Bless my helper fast asleep, when the night is long and deep. And keep my cargo safe and sound, though hours long around.
Make my judgement sound as steel and be my hands upon the wheel. Bless the traveler going past and teach him not to go so fast. Give me strength for every trip, so I may care for what they ship.
And keep me mindful every mile, that life is just a little while.
Amen

1 Peter 3:8
Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble.
THOUGHT: Mr. and Mrs. Trucker, do you want to be abundantly blessed by God? Who doesn’t, right? All it takes is to follow the guide lines in the Bible! Number one, humble yourself and the number one way to humble yourselves is to submit yourself to Him and become born again.
1 Peter 5:5b says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” (6) humble yourselves under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.” It takes humbleness in our lives to live in harmony, and to be sympathetic with others when the world is teaching, “look out for yourself.” When we humble ourselves, we put God first in our lives, then we put others’ needs before our own, we are getting in a position for God to pour out blessings on us!
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, thank you for your helping me rid my life of pride, replacing it with humbleness. Thank you for your Word, the Bible, by using it as my daily guide, by reading it regularly, I will grow in my Christian life.

There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God in faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the tempation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it. 1 Corinthians 10:13
Trucking can be a lonely life filled with temptations and trials. Remember you are not alone - God is with you to help you along the way. Whether you are battling alcohol or gambling addictions or troubles at home, there is help.
