Stay in the Buggy
As many of you know, I was in a hospital in Lexington for a bit..came home yesterday. Nothing too serious (I hope) probably just some side effects of hydrocephalus. At least there was uninterrupted time for thought and study. I often turn to one of the great philosophers of our time,”Festus of Gunsmoke”, who famously said the line “Stay in the buggy”. He said this to Doc (I wish Doc were here… he’d fix me right up). The phrase means “keep the faith, stay the course, keep on keeping on”… Isn’t that what God calls us to do as well? “Stay in the buggy" is a folk-wisdom phrase meaning to hold on, do not give up, and persevere through the rough paths of life. So I encourage you to:
Trust the buggy: Just as a driver must stay in a horse-drawn carriage through rough terrain or a storm rather than jumping out to certain disaster, believers are encouraged to stay in the fight of faith until the journey is finished. Don’t let life’s ups and downs throw you. Don’t begin to believe that the buggy (the Word of God) won’t protect you and keep you safe as you travel the rocky road.
Trust the Driver: Even when the road gets steep, rocky, or frightening, God is steering the course, and will bring you through safely. Many scriptures teach this principle; none more so than Proverbs 3:5-6: “"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight”
Don’t Quit: Christians are to not to bail out of their commitment or calling when hard times or trials come! God deserves more than that.
In the aforementioned Gunsmoke episode, Festus saved Doc from a rattlesnake bite. God can and will do more than that, if you stay in the buggy!~jme
