Our mission is to take our motorcycle and set up on the roadside to fulfill the Lord&#8217;s promise to us, &#8220;If you will go and sit on the side of the road, I will bring you the people I am drawing.&#8221; Our boundaries are the roads and the times He gives us each day.\u00a0\u00a0I asked the Lord, &#8220;Why a motorcycle?&#8221; and He answered, &#8220;Because if you had a car, a woman alone with kids wouldn&#8217;t stop for fear that someone could be hiding in the car. With a motorcycle, you are totally transparent and no one has to be afraid.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">He told us that there are many who have had seeds planted in their hearts about Jesus but have questions before they give their hearts to Him. They don&#8217;t go to church, and they have no Christian friends, family or co-workers.<\/p>\n<p>The Lord told us not to spend our time, energy and money seeking people who will never give their hearts to Him. He said, &#8220;There are people in whom I have planted a seed from when they were a small child, a teen or an adult, and they are so close to giving their hearts to Me. They have a few questions they need answered before they do that. But they don&#8217;t go to church because they&#8217;re not Christians; they have no Christian friends or family; and they don&#8217;t have Christian co-workers. If you will go and set up on the side of the road, I will bring you the people I am drawing. &#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;Lord, what if someone stops and asks something I don&#8217;t know the answer to. I wouldn&#8217;t know what to tell them.&#8221; &#8220;You&#8217;re right,&#8221; He said, &#8220;you wouldn&#8217;t, but I would. So with each person, you are continuously to ask, &#8216;Lord what do you want to say to them?&#8217;And I will tell you what to say. Tell them what I want them to know. It may have nothing to do with why they stopped.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">When people stop, we aren&#8217;t to give them OUR words but to ask Him what He would like to say to them. Each person has a different need, a different situation, and is in a different place with God. And God has a message, a word, for each one that He has called to stop.<br \/>\nThe Lord said, &#8220;Do not think about it as you have to be there at a certain time but that I have an appointment to keep.&#8221; It&#8217;s not Him sending us out for a divine appointment. People aren&#8217;t stopping to meet us. Unknown to them, they are coming to meet with Him. He scheduled it. It&#8217;s not our divine appointment, it&#8217;s His.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">We have seen God do incredible things on the side of the road: healings, suicidal people saved, addicts delivered, people with emotional and mental problems set free, demons cast out, lives transformed before our eyes, and whole families rededicated to the Lord.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">If you would like to receive our monthly e-newsletter, please sign up through the &#8220;Contact Us&#8221; page.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are Bikers with Boundaries, a roadside ministry offering &#8220;FREE PRAYER&#8221; on the streets.
