Rock Gardens


Sometimes its the small things in life that just makes you smile. Like the ability to (DVR) fast forward the very happy girl on TV, that wants to peddle, a over priced rug, for my home.

Sometimes its the bigger things in life. This past weekend I had a chance to get back into the woods on my Mountain Bike, and was daydreaming about being introduced to my first grandchild next year...that just makes me grin really hard. I had some Josh Ridings pipping through my iPod and was being brought to Worship my creator as I was listing to "I Cry Out" by Josh. Thanks Josh!!

It was a much slower ride than normal. The trail bed was covered with leaves, and I found my self doubting where the trail was even though I have ridden it many times. I was trusting my eyes much more than my heart. There is a Bible Study lesson in that, my LifeGroup Leaders :)

During my time of worship on this ride, I stopped at what is known as the Rock Garden for a time prayer. It is a place where many Mt. bikers have meet the earth unexpectedly. After reading Joshua 4, I had a man moment, I thought that I would pick up a rock as did one of the 12 in the scripture. It was pretty heavy, and I began to look for a lighter rock. My man moment was short lived. LifeGroup Leaders ...Bible Study #2 opportunity

Do we really worship? Do we look for the light load? Do we really delight in our GOD?
