Living By the Prayer Jesus Died By: A Prayer of Our Praise (Ps. 31:19-24)

Author John Ortberg presents the following scenarios:[1]

“At a tollbooth, the driver of the car in front of you is having an extended conversation with the tollbooth operator.  You…

  1. A.    Are happy they are experiencing the tollbooth in community.  You think about joining them and forming a small group.
  2. B.    Dream of things you would like to say to the tollbooth operator.
  3. C.     Attempt to drive your vehicle between the other guy’s car and the tollbooth.

You have been sitting in the waiting room of your doctor’s office for an hour.  You…

  1. A.    Are grateful for the chance to catch up on the 1993 Reader’s Digest.
  2. B.    Tell the other patients you have a highly contagious and fatal disease, hoping this will empty the waiting room.
  3. Force yourself to hyperventilate to get immediate attention.”
