Keep Pedaling
In this inspiring message, we explore the profound connection between loving Jesus and keeping His commandments. Using the analogy of learning to ride a bike, we discover that God's commandments are not burdensome rules, but loving instructions designed to help us grow and experience true freedom. Just as a parent's commands to 'keep pedaling' when teaching a child to ride a bike have a greater purpose, God's commandment has a creative goal greater than failed obedience. We're encouraged to not only obey but to remember the target of each commandment - our growth, freedom, and abundant life in Christ. This perspective shift helps us see God's love behind His instructions and motivates us to persevere in our faith journey, even when we stumble.
