Last night before our middle school youth group started I got to play a little football with some of the guys . We had a wonderful time and my arm was holding out very well although I still need to work on my throwing arm although it is getting better.
After we came in to start The Element [our middle school group] one of the leaders was getting on my case started gettting on me and saying I shouldn’t be playing football because of my arm. That person got really upset when I said I had started riding my mountain bike again. My only comment was that I couldn’t just sit on the couch and let life pass me by.
I only write this to ask was I wrong to say what I said. I still feel very strongly about reaching the mountain bike and cycling community with the gospel and the only way to do that is to be out there riding with them. Since God has healed me I fell completely comfortable riding again. Should I?
Ask your doctor. If it’s OK with the doc, it’s nobody else’s business.
Does this person mean you should never ride again? That’s way over the top. Ask them if they have ever been in a car wreck. If yes, ask if they have been in a car since.
Thank you Susan. The doc says it is alright as long as I take it easy. I like the way you compared it to a auto accident.
