Welcoming a new month is like embracing a dear friend who has come to remind you that every day is a new opportunity to create your story. Each month offers a fresh start, a blank page to fill with your dreams and aspirations. Starting a new month is like taking a deep breath of fresh air, feeling the freedom of the open road to pursue your goals you wish to accomplish this riding season.

I have over 930 songs on my YouTube Mrs. Cavatica Playlist. Before we begin a ride, I shuffle the playlist. What are the odds that as we finally get to a stretch of riding the country roads, the song “Yellow” by India Arie starts to play as I begin to notice fields of yellow flowers along the country roads?

I couldn’t help but laugh because what are the odds that out of 930 songs, a song about the color yellow would start playing at the precise moment we are riding alongside fields of yellow flowers?

But that’s our God! He always offers moments to commune with Him, especially when riding on the open road, through the green trees, and under the blue sky. He’s always offering us moments to connect with Him. But it’s challenging. Many things prevent us from communing, being present, and being mentally open, keeping us in a constant tailspin and leaving us emotionally drained at the end of the day.

You see, the color yellow is a fascinating color with a variety of meanings. It symbolizes freshness, happiness, positivity, clarity, energy, optimism, enlightenment, remembrance, intellect, honor, loyalty, and joy. It is also considered the most visible color of the spectrum and is believed to represent faith, the glory of God, anointing, and joy biblically. So, if the color yellow and the song stay in yellow is speaking to me through this ride… Lord, how do I stay in this mental space with you? How do I stay in the yellow? In happiness, positivity, clarity, optimism, faith, your glory, your anointing, and joy! RIDE

And there lies the message from this rides adventure: We Ride. We ride as much as we can and as often as we can. We look and listen for the signs that lovingly remind us that God will never leave us or forsake us Deuteronomy 31:8 and that he is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in our time of need Psalm 46:1

As the riding season approaches, let us focus on staying in the Yellow. Let’s take this opportunity to find rides that speak to our souls, rejuvenate our spirits and allow us to connect with the magnificence of God’s creations.

Let us Pray!

Gracious Father, I am humbled by the signs and wonders you have bestowed upon me, but above all, I am grateful for the gift of life you have given me. With my soul in your loving hands and the beauty of your creation surrounding me, I am constantly reminded of your abundant blessings. Thank you for guiding me on this journey and for the many blessings that enrich my life along the way.

In Jesus Name We Pray, Amen!

Faith Step: How do you plan on staying in the Yellow this riding season? Which rides are you looking forward to that will refresh your soul, give you a break from the everyday busyness, and provide you with an opportunity to connect with the beauty of God’s creations?

May the Joy of the Lord instantly become your strength to encourage you to overcome any fears that you might experience. Remember, in our daring to be brave, when we throw caution to the wind, casting our cares in Faith upon Him through the ride. Peace, love, and joy are set loose in the atmosphere, and it permits other riders to do the same. Allowing us to all rejoice in knowing we have triumphant victory in Riding the Good Ride of Faith – LaShaun & Mrs. Cavatica
