Biking with God


The other day I was riding my bike down the street. I saw a man riding a bike which had a one-wheel child’s bike attachment to it. The child on the bike could pedal, but without being attached to his father’s bike, the child’s bike wouldn't be able to move on its own. This represents my relationship with God. God gives me the opportunity to make my own choices. I have independence in what I think, how I act, where I go, or how fast I pedal. At the same time, I am fully dependent on God. God guides me along my journey, does the majority of the work, and sets the pace. I am grateful for God’s pedal power on my daily journey!
