I went to the fair last week with my family and had a great time. I especially enjoyed watching my son get on some of the "bigger" rides for the first time. I will probably always remember his reaction as he got off the first big ride. He stepped off and said with much enthusiasm, "Yes!" He loved the thrill of the ride.
I got to thinking later about how walking with God through life is much like that roller coaster. Sometimes we go through "low" times and sometimes there are "high" times. But in all of the times, God is there. Sometimes we can wonder where God is when we go through those low times. What we need to realize is that He is maybe the one constant in our lives. He doesn't change and He doesn't go back on His promises. No matter what, God is there to walk though all of life's adventures with you. Enjoy the thrill of the ride.
Blessings.
