Biker Outreach at Beachside Church - joeltan - 03-08-2010
So i got called for a last minute riding oppertunity for Daytona's bike week. It was a outreach geared towards all the bikers that were going to be in town.I paired up with Art Lohman from the Christian Sportbike Racing Association.
It was a very small riding area, but nothing spectacular was needed. Just going out and showing the crowd my love and appreciation for everything that has happened in my life. I emphasized on the extra parts that we use to beable to do the things we do. With out them, it would be a very hard struggle. I liken'd it to the use of our bible and how we use that for our everyday walk with christ.
I showed them differant variations of tricks, some more harder then others. Things that took months of work, some came easy but most were a hard road to go down. Dealing with doubt and hurt of things gone wrong . But always having the faith and strenght to beable to pull through.
one of my fav but most dangerous for me.
I blew a tire for the crowd. Needless to say, everyone loved it. Especially the kids. They gathered around
and even became my own little pit crew.Everything from bringing my wheel from the van, to telling me i needed to spread my brake pads. "seriously"
you never know the impact you will have on someones life. By taking 2 seconds to talk with someone is all it takes. A 3 year old had seen me at the morning service the follwing day and came upto me . THANKED me for coming and doing kewl tricks.
I have personally been dealing with issues , and this is one of those things that lifts me up and helps me cope. I am so happy to have friends on here and in the world who are there for me. For taking the 2 seconds out of there time to ask me if I/We are ok. It means so much and you are truly loved.
just a little something to make you laugh
