Last
Friday I went for a bike ride. I, along with my spouse and another
couple, rode 17 miles. The weather was great. In fact I road my
bike in shorts and sweatshirts and was very comfortable. I think
this is the first time I have ridden my bike in January. What makes
this ride more memorable is the next day I was again back to wearing
a winter jacket as I went out to an evening party. The weather had
changed dramatically very quickly. In fact by Sunday there was ice
on the roads.
I
am very much aware of how quickly weather can change and I am also
very aware that life brings change at me at a very fast pace. I know
what it is to lose a loved one quickly. I also know what it is to
see people move in and out of my life quickly too. Change is a fact
of life for me in many ways. So, today I am rejoicing in the fact
that love continues to flow into my life in many ways. One of the
reasons I cling to God is that His love never fails and is always
-always- there even in the midst of change.
