Belief By Bike

• "Will you go on adventure with Me?" "I will!"
• Was His question, my answer, as I cycled
• Zipping in wild abandon down the hill

• No need for pedalling, my life went so well
• Only joyriding blessing after blessing
• God asked me to go on adventure. "Sure I will!"

• The wind ruffled my hair and soul
• Stripping away every level of composure
• So my excitement flew uncovered down the hill

• I stretched my legs, my arms like wings
• I was not alone. Two hands on my shoulders
• Matching grins, we went at adventure with a will

• Together we went down, a pair of gulls
• Preying upon joy, laughing, laughing, we rode
• Closing in, satisfied, on the bottom of the hill

• Steam goes out of my body, breath killed
• One tensing muscle after the next, I start work
• Continue this adventure up the road? Not sure if I will

• Far beyond my reach, into the sky, it is still
• He speaks, I don't answer, focus on the effort
• I lost all gumption on arrival at the bottom of the hill

• Those hands rest on my shoulders in comfort, till
• I admit defeat. "Trust me?" His head atop mine
• "To guide us on this adventure?" "I will, I will!"

• "But what about the journey?" I ask, rather ill
• "Help me?" "Yes!" My feet from the pedals, replaced
• And head light with awe I speed up the hill

• My hands steering, trying to keep on the road
• The Spirit, like wind, blowing through my soul
• We go on adventure, now led by His Will
• With amazing grace I shoot up the hill
