The seasons have been changing for a little while now. The weather is now finally to a point where we can get out our bikes and ride.
I love cycling. I love the freedom and the speed and the feeling of finishing a long ride. Today, however, was one of those adventure days. The wind was blowing. It wasn't constant but there were moments when I rounded a corner and got blasted by a gust. And it didn't stop there. Head down and peddling hard, there were times that I would get hit by another shot that made me wonder how much longer I could keep this up.
I think there are many times that we feel as though we are peddling into the wind. It is hard, but I know I am a better rider for taking it on. Challenges in life breed strength. Even when it feels as though you are getting hit by a gust, thank God that he provides the stength to keep peddling and thank God for the things he is teaching you.
Good analogy here. I have been "bucking" the wind for several months now but I know God is there for me. He is my only source of hope and comfort.
