It Is Like Riding A Bicycle, Right?

Yeah, it is like riding a bicycle.

You know the saying, right? Someone says, "I have not done that in a while." "That is OK" another person replies. "It is like riding a bicycle. Once you know how to do it, you got it. Climb on and it will all come back to you."

Yeah right!

We have driven the BoggsMobile well over 200,000 miles. 
We have hooked up a car to the bus hundreds of times.
We have pulled into truckstops hundreds of times. 
We have labored over the map, GPS and Google Maps hundreds of times.
We have driven through major cities hundreds of times.
We have navigated around mountains and through small towns hundreds of times.
We have pulled into church parking lots and parked hundreds of times.
We have leveled the bus hundreds of times.
We have hooked up the electricity hundreds of times.
We have emptied the holding tanks hundreds of times.
We have unhooked all of the utilities hundreds of times.
We have unloaded the sound equipment hundreds of times.
We have carried the sound equipment into churches and under tents hundreds of times.
We have hooked it all up and had soundcheck hundreds of times.
We have sung and preached hundreds of times.
We have carried the equipment out hundreds of times.
We have loaded it all in the BoggsMobile hundreds of times.
We have said goodbye and driven into the sunset OR sunrise hundreds of times.

Do you have the picture yet?

AND when I say hundreds of times, I am being conservative. Some of the items on that list easily number in the thousands of times.

Yet, here we are.
After 203 days at home. Nearly seven months off the road. Over 1/2 of the year NOT doing all those things we have done hundreds and even thousands of times and we feel like newbies! 

It is like riding a bicycle, right? Get on and it will all come back to you. Do not fret about it. You have got this!

It is like riding a bicycle. Yes, it is. 

Yeah, it is like riding a bicycle ... and falling off! Ouch!

I should have remembered. I have the scars to prove it. 

I have no doubt that I rode a bicycle many hundreds of miles as a kid. I jumped on the bike and went. However, I have scars on my hands, elbows, legs, head and back to prove that not all my hundreds of miles of bike riding went as smoothly as most of them.

Yeah, it is like riding a bicycle ... and falling off! 

But, you get back up, dust yourself off, wipe away the blood and tears, get on the bike and ride again.

Life is a challenge, like riding a bicycle. That must be why I am so sore this morning.

Thank you for joining us for a few minutes today. Do not panic. We are fine. I am only waxing a smidgen dramatic today.😊

A Word For Wednesday

A Word for Wednesday for this week is from George B. Duncan's daily devotional, Every Day With Jesus. I posted it a few moments ago on our YouTube Channel.


This was recorded in a new location. I set up by the BoggsMobile Sunday evening in beautiful Lowell, Vermont. I first tried the mountains as a backdrop, but the evening light was too low, so you get the bus, the tent and the church in the background.

We sometimes express our weariness with waiting on God. George B. Duncan wonders if God ever tires of waiting on us! God wants our best from us and His best for us. Why does it take so long for us to see that?

If you enjoy this, please subscribe, thumbs up the video and share the video with someone.😍 Thank you,

Davy

Revival In Pictures - Lowell, Vermont

We sure appreciate Pastor David DiZazzo and the Lowell Bible Church for welcoming us with open arms for revival again in Lowell, Vermont. The weather has been cool and refreshing, the people have been warm and inviting and the services have been sweet and compelling.

That makes for a pretty good revival in my book!

As most of you know, this is our first revival as we crank up road life again, post-COVID episode and I could not ask for any better place or response. Every step seemed ordained of God. He has it all in control.

In the second service, a young lady prayed with Pastor DiZazzo and ask the Lord into her heart and that is what I live for! All three nights God was speaking so gently and lovingly and it was a pleasant place to be. I loved it!

We have a pile of pictures for you today as part of Revival In Pictures. Take your time and enjoy them. There are more pictures in yesterday's post.

Thank you for spending a few minutes with us.

Davy
