The Parable of the Runner

A man set off to run 8miles. On Monday he started off too fast and ran out of energy after 3miles.  On Wednesday he deliberately ran much slower and ran 10miles.

Is this story about you?

A prayer for 2013...

I haven't been in the mood or had the inspiration to blog for quite some time, but I'd like to share one of my prayers for 2013 with you.  Perhaps something might help or resonate within your soul.

"Lord, all year long You'll prove Your promises & capacity to keep us from falling.

Though we may falter on the journey, the grasp of Your grace is steady & secure.

When we waver in our adoration of You, You will remain committed & fully engaged with us.

Even when you must discipline us this year, it will be in love, never in disgust or regret that You had adopted us.

We praise You for being the perfect Father to Your daughters & sons."
