Two men were riding a bicycle built for two when they came to a hill that was very long and steep. It took a great deal of struggle for the men to complete what proved to be a very difficult climb. When they finally got to the top of the hill the man in front turned to the other and said, “That sure was a hard climb!” His partner replied, “Yes, and if I hadn’t kept the brakes on all the way we would certainly have rolled down backwards!”

Make sure you aren’t the one holding others back and making life more difficult for people! Get your foot off the brake and start pedaling!

“Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.”—Romans 12:11.
