Let me start off my saying it has nothing to do with track. It was more about the metaphorical aspect of it. I assume most people have heard the analogy of how life is like a race. That's true words right there...each and every day brings about new hurdles or a lap of victory with it. And still, you have to continue the race.
In 2 Tim 4:7, Paul says "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." (NKJV)The race that we're running will eventually come to an end. However, the question that we must ask ourselves is 'can I say what Paul has said?'
That's all that really matters at the end..to be able to say those words with a firm belief.
A belief that affirms our salvation.
A belief that speaks through our words and actions.
A belief that is evident in our life, because that is what others will see; we might never get a chance to tell others about Christ, but can they see Him in us? In what we do and say?
My humble desire is that I can say exactly what Paul has said. To fight the good fight, and to finish the race while still keeping the faith.
I've been recently hearing about the importance of having a vision when you're setting out to do things.
"Where there is no vision, the people perish." Proverbs 29:18a (KJV)So what's my vision for this blog? To help others in any way possible. Alright, I'm not the most adequate person out there or the most well-spoken. However, the things God has shown me in the past weeks have been amazing, and I only want to help anyone reading this blog to get closer to God. Whether it be one little sentence or a small verse that moves you...I'll be thankful. So, thanks for reading and God bless =)
