Another E-bike adventure! Although we were lagging due to illness, we packed our bags and kept our itinerary. The rain on Sunday kept us from a friend ride, which was disappointing, but Monday was a great sunny day for the High Bridge Trail in Farmville, VA. We watched a few YouTube videos about the trail….
Exploring Fulfillment of God’s Word in Our Lives
I wanted to return to John Chapter 6, specifically verse 60: “This is very hard to understand. How can anyone accept it?” This response was directed to Jesus after a teaching that went against their beliefs and understanding. It was too far-fetched for them to believe, and they could not grasp the more profound meaning….
The Miracle of Faith: Lessons from John Chapter 6
John Chapter 6 in the Discovering Jesus study has the theme of faith, belief, and the Holy Spirit. I love the story of the little boy who came to hear Jesus with his mama’s packed lunch of 5 barley loaves and two fish. Perhaps the lunch was for him, his siblings, and the father who…
Healing from Apathy: Embrace Spiritual Renewal
“The Bible is alive, it speaks to me; it has feet, it runs after me; it has hands, it lays hold of me.“ — Martin Luther. Two words, “fresh” and “renew,” were consistently expressed yesterday. I’m sure everyone who shared in their designated roles did not talk to each other; however, God chose to have…
Exploring the Multifaceted Nature of Generosity in Faith
Generosity is a multifaceted quality involving the willingness to give or share, often without expecting anything in return. It goes beyond simply providing material possessions and encompasses a broader spirit of giving. It is freely given without conditions, and has positive intentions. Beyond material generosity, it is the ability to empathize, forgive, and offer genuine…
Looking Up
Where do we look for peace, acceptance, or joy? When you stop to ponder this question there are so many ways God has given us to interact with others through relationships and His creations. Oh the joy of nature, and the beauty of the world around us, or the love we experience with friends and…
Exploring E-Bike Adventures on Virginia Central Railway Trail
We are learning to include our e-bike adventures with scheduled outings. I had the privilege and joy of attending Fredericksburg Public Schools Wellness Resource Fair, and from there, we traveled 5 minutes to the Virginia Central Railway Trail. This parking lot is a little confusing. If you end up in the parking lot of the…
A visit to Indian Fields Tavern: Virginia Capital Trail
When we went to Normandy, France, we had our first E-bike adventure, and this is where it all started. We came home, and the following weekend, Kul Wheels had an expo in the parking lot of Stone Brewery in Richmond. We went, and the rest is history! I highly recommend Kul Wheels! Purchasing an e-bike…
Mothers and Miracles: Reflecting Christ’s Love
Continuing my reading of my new Bible study, Discovering Jesus, I am trying to see how the Word and His Spirit will guide me through chapter 2 of John. This chapter includes the first miracle, which was performed at a wedding. Jesus turned the water into wine. Jesus also cleared the temple and reminded us…
Finding Hope in Life’s Questions
I truly appreciate a thoughtful, caring question. My friend Kris embodies this beautifully; she has a talent for asking meaningful and introspective questions that allow me to delve deeper into my feelings and thoughts. For instance, when I return from a trip, she doesn’t just ask about my travels in passing. Instead, she genuinely inquires,…
