The Ride


Yesterdays ride was great! Only 2 people showed up, myself and my good friend Bobby, and we had a great time of fellowship and riding. If you're like me then riding is something that helps you clear your head and regain your focus. There's nothing like rolling down the highway at 75mph handlebar to handlebar with another bike letting your mind focus on the ride and to what God has to say to you. My cousin Angela calls my motorcycle my two wheeled sanctuary, I couldn't agree more!!! Where's your special place that you can go when you need clear your head and talk/listen to God?
Think about that for a minute........
Do you have a place that you go when you need some peace and quiet to just reflect on God or on your life? If you don't I highly recommend it. My beautiful wife tells me than on Wednesday mornings when she is cleaning the church that she just clears her head while cleaning God's house and that she feels closer to Him while cleaning... I said the same thing, huh? But for her she's serving the Lord's house and clearing her mind to be receptive to God's voice at the same time! If you don't have a place or activity that helps you clear your mind and listen to God's voice then find one. Maybe a quiet place in your house, or a local park, maybe a local beach or some place that is peaceful for you. Not everybody enjoys doing 75mph and hearing Vance and Hines pipes splitting the air in a thunderous tone!!! But for me that's my zone and the place where my mind is clear enough that God can examine me and show me what areas I need to work on in my life so that He can shine through in me! I challenge you to look around and find a place that you can go when you need to relax and listen to God and His plan for you. Now if you will excuse me I need to hit the road and spend some time talking to our loving Savior!!!

Proverbs 23:12 (NLT) Commit yourself to instruction; listen carefully to the words of knowledge.
