We climbed through the Rockies all Monday night, with Carl conquering Monarch Pass (elevation 11,840) at noon on Tuesday. Coming out of the east slope of the great mountains, I enjoyed a stretch of cycling along the Arkansas River, before turning up into our last bit of incline. There was a moderate headwind, enough to force you to work even on a downward grade. As I doggedly pushed onward against the persistent pushing back of the wind, I was reminded of the countless times I have pushed on against the steady resistance of the Holy Spirit, too strong willed or dimwitted to heed her persistent push.
Now 75 miles into Kansas, we are enjoying 85-90 degree sunny weather. While we will doubtless have plenty of headwinds in the days to come, I feel confident that we have the Spirit of Holiness encouraging us along.
