Just Keep a' Movin' Your Feet!

Life is like riding a bicycle. 

To keep your balance, you must keep going. 

                - Albert Einstein 

It's true! We are to have troubles in this world, and, sometimes, we just can't get around them. Especially as Christians, we know we will struggle in this life, but we also know that we will be taken care of by our mighty and loving Father. The best thing to do in a troubling situation is to trust God and keep going. And it's hard... But we have to TRUST. Think about when you were little, learning how to ride a bike. If you were anything like me, you were NOT OKAY with mom or dad letting go of the bike. They kept saying to keep peddling and "you won't fall," but, alas, you stopped peddling, and... you fell. But, eventually, you got it, and you knew to just keep peddling 'cause it was the only way to move. 

I think Einstein pretty much nails it with this analogy! And, though not mentioned by Einstein himself, the underlying truth is to trust and have faith... that's how we keep moving. 

When you get to the end of all the light you know and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly. - Edward Teller
