What a great Saturday it was! 60 Degrees and an hour on the Goldwing. It was a great ride and now the bike is back in the trailer. What weather we have in Ohio! 60 degrees one day and 30 the next. Lots of rain and lousy weather.
Just watched the first video of Andy Stanley's "Guardrails" series. It was really good and started to make me think of Guardrails in my life. I feel like I was raised in a "guardrails" kind of life. Rose and I both feel that way. That is a good thing for sure. But Andy did make me think about what a guardrail is...is it a standard in my life that makes me have a mark on my conscience that makes me change the way I live. What new guardrails do I need?
A new one in our life is the guardrail of diet. Since last June Rose and I have changed the way we eat and how much we eat. We measure our food more, share meals and steaks which from time to time drives us crazy. But it is a lifestyle change that must stay with us the rest of our lives. So on we go, one day at a time. This makes us use the scales as a guardrail. Maintaining weight and changing our lifestyle. Not always fun, but sure makes you feel better. Day by day is how we must live our lives. This is made possible by a faith in Christ that we also have and makes us accountable to each other and to God.
