Riding Tandem Annie Pajcic

Do you ever feel like your relationship with God is about trying harder and pedaling faster just to be noticed and valued? Riding Tandem is not about trying harder but letting God be the Captain of our lives. It's about letting go of control and learning that our position on this tandem journey is on the back of the bike. Our personal relationship with God is built for two. We must learn to lean into His leading, pedal forward, and trust Him with the directions. Riding Tandem will teach us that while our final destination is heaven, our destiny on earth has purpose. We are not just along for the ride, we are apart of the ride. God wants us to live an abundant life completely surrendered to His leading. Riding Tandem with Jesus is letting go of the handle bars and experiencing His power as we pedal. Everyday. Riding Tandem is divided into six chapters using the acronym T-A-N-D-E-M. Week One: T-ime for Takeoff Week Two: A-lignment Week Three: N-ecessary Stops Week Four: D-on't Stop Pedaling Week Five: E-njoy the Ride Week Six: M-ark the Moments. We have a choice to make. Are we going to steer our own stories, or are we going to allow God to be our guide? My prayer for us as we journey through Riding Tandem is that we will hop on the back and allow God to take the wheel. If we have teachable hearts, God will use our stories in tandem with His Word to teach us His principles. Yes, it can be hard. Sometimes it feels easier to be in control, work hard, and get the job done. But God has a bigger plan. His ways are higher than ours and always better. Where is God taking you today? Are you equipped for the ride? He promises never to leave your side as the Captain of your life. Do you trust His leading? Are you willing to let go of the handle bars? Climb on sweet one and let God balance the bike so you can ride into His presence. Everyday. It's a beautiful day for a bike ride!
