What Do You Want Me To Do For You?

I snapped this picture last month when I was in Laramie on the campus of the University of Wyoming.  As I looked at the picture this morning a number of things jumped into my head.  Am I going through life with with great style and form even when life is rocky and attempting to buck me off?  Am I instead just holding on for dear life regardless of how it looks?  Could it be that I am just protecting my hat during the whole process?

The world can be chaotic but our hope remains in the Lord.  We are encouraged to stand firm in our faith.  This Sunday's Gospel reading has Jesus asking Bartimaeus a very simple question.  "What do you want me to do for you?"  If Jesus asked you that question today how would you respond?
