Another MX season

Well another racing season has come to an end. It was a good season for most of us, but as always a few people got hurt thru out the year.
It makes me wonder sometime why we do this to ourselves. Some of us claim because it is fun, some say it keeps us young and others like the competition. Whatever reason we do it for, we always keep coming back for more. It is amazing what we will do for something that we really want to do.
This brings up a question. What will we do for Jesus? To what extend will we follow him? Will we follow him even when it hurts? That is a good question.
Now there are of course people that don't follow him at all. I am not talking about them right now. I am talking about those of us that call ourselves Christians and have asked him to be our Lord and Savior. To what extend will you follow Jesus.
Sometimes it seems like everything is going against us. Are we ready to give up when that happens? I hope not. Just like getting past pain and injury in MX, these things will pass.

The Bible reminds us:
Ro 8:28And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

This is a promise we need to remind ourselves of and remember in the times when things are tough.
