The Lord himself goes before you and will be you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged – Deuteronomy 31:8

This year, I said I would stretch and test my Faith more. I wanted to see what I was made of, be a big girl, and venture out on a ride alone. You see, since becoming a Can-Am Spyder Rider, I can count on two fingers how many times I have ridden my bike alone without my husband. I have been wrestling with the fear of loneliness a lot lately, but it’s a feeling I have to conquer.

There comes a time when you, as a Can-Am Spyder of Faith, will have to stretch it. Test it! Work it. Put it and yourself into action. “Faith isn’t Faith if you don’t Test it. Work it! Or just flat out… Don’t have Faith in your Faith. For Faith to work, you must get out of the boat, Trust God, and take him at his word. Faith without work is Dead. And to enjoy this life and the Good Ride of Faith, you have to have Faith in your Faith. And how do you have Faith in your Faith? Remember when you needed God, and he was there for you; recall his promise to you. And then TRUST Him!

My Ride was beautiful! I went on a 164-mile Chapter Ride with our chapter without my husband, and it felt Great. It was initially strange and a little unsettling because I got to feel what my life would be like as a Can-Am Spyder Rider without a Spouse. But as I rode that beautiful Texas morning, the Spirit of God spoke to my Spirit.
“You are never alone, for I AM with you. I will never leave you, nor will I ever forsake you. I AM the God of Hills and Valleys, and wherever You ride, I AM with you.” Thank you God!

The Hills and Valleys on this side of heaven will at some point will bring loneliness… temporary or permanent either way life will go on with or without you. So, trust that for every Valley of loneliness, The God of the Hills will be there riding with you there also.

Faith Step: Trust God and take HIM at his word. The Lord himself goes before you and will be you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged – Deuteronomy 31:8

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
