Texting while you Drive

A whopping 81 percent of the United States population admits to resorting to texting while a driving a vehicle.
A study by Virginia Tech Driving Institute revealed that those who resort to texting while driving are 23 time more likely to meet with an accident.
Studies reveal that a person who is texting while driving at the speed of 35 mph will cover 25 ft before bringing the car to complete halt as compared to a distance of 4 ft which a drunk driver would cover at the same speed.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA)
Texting while driving caused 5,870 people to die in car crashes in 2008 alone.
The same statistics revealed that 515,000 people were injured in various car crashes in the United States.

What is the point I am bringing this all up for?

People still do it. I do it from time to time, honestly. "Just at a stoplight" or whatever you want to say, you're still getting distracted from what you should be doing. And thats the nitty gritty. All the stats, all the deaths, all the injuries, this is all because we don't pay attention to where we're going.

Grasp a hold of that. Death. Injury. Pain. Hurt.
All because we don't watch where we're going.


Proverbs 3:5-6 (New King James Version)
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
6 In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.


Get focused. Pay attention! Watch where you are going.
