Life is like a taxi.

On an average day in the USA: 1,169,863 people take a taxi. Life is like a taxi. The meter just keeps a-ticking whether you are getting somewhere or just standing still.” It is time to taxi up into your destination. (taxis, taxiing, taxying, taxied) I believe that the Holy Spirit is ready to taxi you into your destination (aircraft taxing on runway). One of the rewards and outcome of worship and intimacy with God is an assignment. It will be an accelerated ride. The Holy Spirit know the quickest direct route to your place of promotion. Taxi·cab ...an automobile that carries passengers for a fare usually determined by the distance (all the world )traveled. The Great commission follows great fellowship with God. Mark 16:15-16 (Amplified Bible) 15 And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach and publish openly the good news (the Gospel) to every creature [of the whole human race]. The world (kovsmoß, Kosmos, kos'-mos    an apt and harmonious arrangement or constitution, order, government) might be defined as the inhabitants of the earth, men, the human family, the ungodly multitude; the whole mass of men alienated from God, and therefore hostile to the cause of Christ.

Hailing a Cab (Worship) Calling and Commission are a result of worship.  Majesty/All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name. The act of flagging down a cab is called "hailing"; there's not much to it, just stick out your arm and pretend you're the Statue of Liberty. To raise or elevate. 1. Hands were lifted in pronouncing a blessing (Leviticus 9:22). 2. In ancient times as now, an oath required raising one's hand (Genesis 14:22; Exodus 6:8, NAS margin; Deuteronomy 32:40). Several uses of lift must be viewed in light of the ancient requirement of prostrating oneself before a superior (Genesis 43:26; 1 Samuel 25:23). 8. Eyes, hands, heart, and soul are frequently lifted up to God in fervent prayer (Psalms 25:1; Psalms 28:2; Psalms 63:4; Psalms 134:2; Psalms 141:2; Lamentations 2:19; Daniel 4:34; 1 Timothy 2:8). 9. In John's Gospel, lifting up refers both to the lifting up of Jesus on the cross and to His exaltation (resurrection/ascension) (John 3:14; John 8:28; John 12:32,John 12:34). Taxi Fares (teamwork) Your success is accelerlated by teamwork. While cabs are relatively expensive for a single person, they can actually be a bargain with 3 or more riders. Officially, taxicabs can take on only four riders -- 3 in the backseat, 1 in the front seat. Luke 14:28 "For which of you, intending to build a tower, does not sit down first and count the cost, whether he has enough to finish it--

Yellow..Gold: Something good; honor Yellow is the color of glory, which is the glow or shining of something. The Color Yellow The color (and name) yellow was selected by John Hertz as the result of a survey by the University of Chicago which indicated it was the easiest color to spot.  In 1905 Walden W Shaw and John D. Hertz partnered in an auto agency that became the Walden W Shaw Company. In 1907 it acquired some Thomas Taxicabs with meters. The Shaw Livery Company, which combined several livery and taxicab companies, was founded in 1910, operating Keaton Thomas Flyers, and Cadillacs, and ultimately 12 different models. None of these fully suited the taxicab industry, so on December 31, 1914 the first Yellow Cab Manufacturing Company Cab was designed, and the Model J was released in August 1915. Yellow Cab taxicab service was founded by John Hertz in December 1, 1915.
