We have really been working with Elli getting over some fears. One of these is with her riding her bike. She started out great this summer, but fell and didn't want to ride anymore. Well, over the last couple of weeks, Elli has been riding her bike everyday. Tonight, Brent rode his bike, Elli rode her bike, and she wanted me to walk with her. With me beside her and daddy in front of her, she rode very fast and very far. She was conifdent and said she wanted to ride more.
I wonder how Jesus feels as He walks beside us each day? He is right there, but we don't think He is near enough to keep us safe.
Lord, let me ride like you are walking beside me, holding out your hand to steady me, and even riding in front to show me how its done!

So beautiful! Bethany was the same way. She got hurt and I thought she'd never get on a bike again. Then all of a sudden she was riding all over the place! God has patience with us.
Oh...I just want to squeeze Elli. I am also learning from her - Lori, will you come stand beside and put your hand out as I get over my fear of killing spiders???
