Running the Race



Hurry! Rush! Be quick about it!
All our lives are hasty

We text
We call
We Skype
We Twitter
We Facebook
Download those new apps
We cut people off in traffic
We run red lights, stop signs
We speed
We interrupt
We microwave
We order takeout
We stop at Starbucks

Everything to save time, to get it done, to expedite
The more we rush, the more time we crave
The more we rush, the less time we save

Be still and know that I am God
How do we do that
In our body and our mind?

We have to stop
Listen
Wait on Him
Trust that He is enough
To overcome our weaknesses

God is a jealous God
He won’t stand being multitasked
Love Him with all your heart, soul and mind

Slow Down
Be still
Take Time
Rest in Him
Read His Word
Pray

  1. Thanks Tracy, Indeed our God will not stand for being multi-tasked. He ALONE is God.
