"You can know this: the One who justified you, the One who sanctifies you, will one day glorify you. He will bring all His sons to glory. This is because God loves us with an everlasting love, and we are hidden with Christ in God's love." -John MacArthur

What an encouragement! When we belong to God as those submitted to Christ, we know that He is the one who holds us in His hands, and we cannot be separated from Him. Amen!

Have a great week.

Please welcome Mr. Calentine to the fleet! He's a top-tier trucker who can tackle anything you throw his way. He's a long-time Colorado native. He's in the Midwest now, getting used to that humidity 😅

Thanks for choosing Smith, Charles! We're looking forward to many more miles!

More states are tightening non-domiciled CDL requirements as new federal regulations take effect.

A step toward stronger licensing standards, greater accountability, and safer highways.

This week's verse is from Psalm 1:1-2. Here is a note from pastor John MacArthur regarding this passage.

"You want to be blessed? Then find your delight in the law of the Lord. Walk in the counsel of the godly. Stand in the path of the righteous. Sit in the seat of the holy. You want to give your life to the law of the Lord so that rather than ungodly, sinful, scornful ideas permeating your thoughts day and night, you're literally filled with the law of God. Meditate on it. Let it grip your heart. Find your delight in the law of the Lord and let that be the content of your thought day and night. This is the path to blessing." -John MacArthur

Have a great week and meditate on God's Word!

Did you know refrigerated trucking was revolutionized by a self-taught mechanic?

In the late 1930s, Frederick McKinley Jones helped change the trucking industry forever by developing a practical refrigeration system that could keep freight cold while a truck traveled down the highway.

Before reliable mechanical refrigeration, hauling perishable goods over long distances was a major challenge. Meat, produce, and other temperature-sensitive cargo could spoil before reaching their destinations.

Jones developed a compact, durable refrigeration unit designed to withstand the bumps and vibrations of the road. His invention helped lay the foundation for Thermo King and the refrigerated trailers we know today.

The breakthrough allowed trucking companies to transport fresh and frozen products farther and more reliably, transforming the American food supply chain.

More than 85 years later, refrigerated trucking remains an essential part of keeping grocery stores stocked and communities supplied.

Every re**er trailer on the highway is part of a legacy that innovators like Frederick McKinley Jones helped build.
