DO you remember when you first learned to ride a bicycle by yourself? You'd been doing well on training wheels, but maybe you were a little scared at the thought of taking them off.
When they were gone, maybe your dad or mom ran alongside while you tried to stay on, or maybe you stayed close to a railing so you could grab on if you started to teeter. Finally, though, you just had to hold your breath, go for it, and ride!
There comes a point in life where we have to know about God for ourselves, too. It's a point where everything our parents, our Sunday School teachers, our friends—and even our religion—have taught us about God may be up for question. You may have been given conflicting views of God in some cases, or maybe you just aren't sure that what you have been told is really what you believe. How do we figure out for ourselves what or who God really is? If God is? And for that matter, who we really are?
