How to be Alone

Friday, August 13th, 2010The Bike Ride
Thursday, July 22nd, 2010Author Unknown
When I met Jesus, life became rather like a bike ride. It was a tandem bike; I rode in the front and steered, and Jesus was in the rear seat, helping to pedal.
I don’t remember just when it happened, but Jesus suggested we change places. Life hasn’t been the same since. Jesus makes the ride so exciting!
When I had control, I knew the way. It was safe and predictable, but rather boring – always the shortest distance between two points. But when Jesus got in the driver’s seat, He knew delightful “long cuts” up mountain roads and down again at breakneck speeds. It was all I could do to hold on!
I didn’t want to question His judgment, but once I couldn’t help myself. “Don’t You think we should slow down just a little? I’m scared.” He turned and smiled and touched my hand and said, “It’s okay. Pedal.”
Sometimes I got worried and anxious and asked, “Where are You taking me?”
I am learning to not worry or want to get back in control, but just to relax and enjoy the view.
“It’s a surprise,” He would say with a laugh. Gradually I learned to trust. I forgot my boring life and entered the adventure.
He took me to meet people with gifts that I needed – gifts of love, healing, acceptance, joy. They gave me their gifts to take on my journey – our journey, my Lord’s and mine – and we were off again. He said, “Give the gifts away.” So I did, to other people we met. But the strangest thing happened. I found that the more of those things I gave away, the more I had for myself and to give to other people we met along the way. And still our load was light.
At first I didn’t trust Jesus to be in control of my life. I thought He would wreck it. But He knows the bike’s capabilities and limits, and all sorts of tricks. He knows how to take sharp corners at high speeds, make the bike “jump” to clear rocks in our way, and He can even make it fly when the road disappears beneath us.
I am learning to not worry or want to get back in control, but just to relax and enjoy the view, the cool breeze on my face, and the delightful company of my constant companion, Jesus.
I still get tired sometimes because it is a long, hard ride, but Jesus just smiles and says, “Pedal.”
Ending Abortion Event
Saturday, July 10th, 2010I just had the privilege of attending a teleconference about ending abortion in America. It was empowering and educational. About 35 organizations participated and it included 10 hours worth of awesome and inspirational information.
The whole thing is available by audio by going to endingabortion.com. Please check it out.
Thanks to David Bereit of 40 Days for Life and Ambassador Speakers Bureau for putting it together. All the speakers volunteered their time. About 10,000 people attended so far, and it will be available as a resource. It was amazing!
I need to re-evaluate my pro-life ministry and I hope you will, too. Blessings.

Find A Way
Friday, October 9th, 2009Don’t believe those who tell you that it can’t be done.
Refuse to be stopped by those who say it’s too late, or not practical,
or too early, or not workable.
Listen carefully and thoughtfully to their advice, and then find a way.
Look realistically at the challenges, and then begin working through them.
What may appear to be an unyielding obstacle when you’re standing still,
will begin to give way when you start moving forward.
Focus not on what is pushing against you,
but focus instead on the purpose that is pushing you to get it done.
Remind yourself again and again of why you must.
Hold your head high and keep your eyes on the goal.
Conditions will change, and so can you.
Some routes will be blocked,
and you have the flexibility to discover alternate ways to get it done.
Decide that you will accomplish what you have chosen to accomplish.
Know that there is a way, and step by step, you will find it.
