Kri\u017eovatky s\u00fa pre m\u0148a fascinuj\u00face. Vlastne ich milujem! Ovplyv\u0148uj\u00fa na\u0161e \u017eivoty na mnoh\u00fdch \u00farovniach. Napadaj\u00fa ti nejak\u00e9 pr\u00edklady? Mo\u017eno si u\u017e teraz predstavuje\u0161 dve ve\u013emi ru\u0161n\u00e9 cesty pln\u00e9 \u00e1ut, ktor\u00e9 sa stret\u00e1vaj\u00fa na semaforoch. Alebo mo\u017eno tvoja myse\u013e prech\u00e1dza k ru\u0161n\u00e9mu priechodu pre chodcov pln\u00e9mu \u013eud\u00ed id\u00facich v\u0161etk\u00fdmi smermi, alebo kruh A, ktor\u00fd sa kri\u017euje s kruhom B. Kri\u017eovatky sa dej\u00fa prakticky v\u0161ade. \u010ci u\u017e uva\u017eujem o najmen\u0161\u00edch kri\u017euj\u00facich sa tuneloch mraveniska alebo o v\u00fdbu\u0161nej supernove, kri\u017eovatkou v\u0161etk\u00fdch kri\u017eovatiek je pre m\u0148a to, ke\u010f sa Boh stal \u010dlovekom. Je\u017ei\u0161 (kruh A) urobil osobn\u00e9 rozhodnutie, ke\u010f poslu\u0161ne vykro\u010dil z prahu neba ve\u013emi osobne pret\u00ednaj\u00fac do lona M\u00e1rie (kruh B), \u010do viedlo k nov\u00e9mu v\u00fdsledku, k nov\u00e9mu \u010dloveku a nakoniec to viedlo k hrozn\u00e9mu a z\u00e1rove\u0148 ve\u013ekolep\u00e9mu v\u00fdsledku na… kr\u00ed\u017ei.

Pri na\u0161ej snahe kr\u00e1\u010da\u0165 tak, ako kr\u00e1\u010dal Je\u017ei\u0161, sa, samozrejme, mus\u00edme najprv uisti\u0165, \u017ee sme sa osobne stretli s Je\u017ei\u0161om na kr\u00ed\u017ei, a to len na z\u00e1klade viery. Nasadili sme si prilbu spasenia? A\u017e potom sa m\u00f4\u017eeme za\u010da\u0165 u\u010di\u0165, ako sa osobne kri\u017eova\u0165 s druh\u00fdmi \u013eu\u010fmi a ich \u017eivotmi a pokorne im ukazova\u0165 Kristov ukri\u017eovan\u00fd \u017eivot v n\u00e1s. Pavol v liste Gala\u0165anom 2:19 \u2013 20 povedal: \u201eS Kristom som ukri\u017eovan\u00fd. U\u017e ne\u017eijem ja, ale \u017eije vo mne Kristus. A \u017eivot, ktor\u00fd teraz \u017eijem v tele, \u017eijem vo viere v Bo\u017eieho Syna, ktor\u00fd ma miloval a vydal seba sam\u00e9ho za m\u0148a<\/em>.\u201c Stretol sa so mnou na kri\u017eovatke, ktor\u00e1 zmenila smer m\u00f4jho \u017eivota a ja som mu za to nav\u017edy v\u010fa\u010dn\u00fd a motivuje ma to pom\u00e1ha\u0165 aj in\u00fdm, aby na t\u00fato kri\u017eovatku pri\u0161li. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Aby sme boli na kri\u017eovatk\u00e1ch v bezpe\u010d\u00ed, u\u010dili sme sa ako deti v\u017edy zastavi\u0165, pozrie\u0165 sa, sp\u00fdta\u0165 sa a po\u010d\u00fava\u0165<\/em>. Navrhujem, aby sme si osvojili t\u00fato dobr\u00fa radu aj pre na\u0161e vz\u0165ahov\u00e9 kri\u017eovatky.

Ke\u010f sme \u017eili v Colorade, \u010dasto som chodieval do pr\u00e1ce na bicykli. Ke\u010f som sa jedn\u00e9ho d\u0148a cestou domov bl\u00ed\u017eil k hlavnej kri\u017eovatke, pokra\u010doval som na zelen\u00fa s pr\u00e1vom prednostnej jazdy, ale na moje prekvapenie sa v tej istej kri\u017eovatke, ktor\u00fa som prech\u00e1dzal na bicykli, objavilo pr\u00edli\u0161 r\u00fdchlo id\u00face auto, ktor\u00e9 odb\u00e1\u010dalo vpravo. Toto jeho rozhodnutie sp\u00f4sobilo, \u017ee som sa ne\u010dakane stretol so zadnou \u010das\u0165ou jeho auta. Preletel som cel\u00e9 auto a prist\u00e1l na chrbte priamo uprostred jednej z najru\u0161nej\u0161\u00edch kri\u017eovatiek v meste. Na\u0161\u0165astie ma zachr\u00e1nila moja prilba. Paradoxne, m\u00f4j bicykel urobil obrovsk\u00fa prelia\u010deninu na boku toho auta. M\u00f4jmu bicyklu sa ni\u010d nestalo. Dokonca som sa na \u0148om odviezol domov. Ten, \u010do zavinil t\u00fato nehodu, bol nahnevan\u00fd na M\u0147A a sna\u017eil sa vo mne vyvola\u0165 pocit viny. Takisto nechcel, aby som to nahl\u00e1sil na pol\u00edcii. Hmmm? Pre\u010do, p\u00fdtal som sa s\u00e1m seba? No, skr\u00e1tka, v tej chaotickej kri\u017eovatke v\u010faka Bo\u017eiemu Duchu, ktor\u00fd milostivo a z\u00e1zra\u010dne p\u00f4sobil skrze m\u0148a, som bol schopn\u00fd uk\u00e1za\u0165 tomuto mlad\u00e9mu mu\u017eovi v\u00fdznam milosrdenstva a l\u00e1skavosti. Nem\u00f4\u017eem v\u00e1m poveda\u0165, \u017ee bol spasen\u00fd a \u017ee viedol 100 mlad\u00fdch \u013eud\u00ed v Colorade. Ale kto vie? U\u017e som ho nikdy viac nevidel.
