Ever have God just show up and startle the bejesus out of you? (and where did that word, bejesus come from?)
First a little background…
Did you know that Minneapolis is the number one biking city in the country? Yeah! Even more than any of the twig-and-bark-eater cities out west! We have more bike paths than any of them.
And there are a heck-of-a-lot-of bikers out there. I know because most of them pass me on their slick road bikes.
When you pass someone the unspoken rule is that you say “On your left.” so they’re not startled and don’t swerve and end up causing a 10-bike pile-up with blood and need for super-hero bandaids.
The problem comes when people (and by people, I mean me) have earbuds in and are listening to other stuff. I get startled a lot. And the other day I got startled when I was listening to a message about hearing God’s voice.
