God’s Runners
October 30, 2023
Today matters, my friend. Yes, I understand that heaven looks better as the future on this earth looks worse. As believers we can spend our time examining gloom and doom. But as Christ followers we have a bigger assignment. We are called to be athletes, race runners.
Will running 26 miles make me an athlete? No. Training to run 26 miles is what qualifies me as an athlete. Reaching the goal of heaven will be no less than glorious beyond our imagination. But we’re still here on purpose. God’s decision. There is at least one good thing for you to do today. And another tomorrow. And the next day. That positive discipline, one day at a time, to matter how hot or rocky, is what makes us God’s athletes, God’s runners.
This is our moment to run.
