Today I ran the St. James Fire Department 5-Mile Run for Burn Victims for the second year in a row. I had two goals for this race: (1) do better on the hills than last year, and (2) improve my time. Last year I was unprepared for the hills which really come into play after the 3rd mile, so this year I took time to train for them. I felt much better this time around, and I improved my time by 2:44, completing the race in 45:47. With about 150 yards left I felt the presence of another runner right next to me. At 100 yards we both simultaneously decided – without looking at each other or saying a word – that we were going to race for the finish and we sprinted our guts out. I am happy to say that I ended up beating him by 1.1 seconds. lol! I thanked him for the great finish, and it was cool how – even as strangers – we both pushed each other to the max.
I like D.L. Moody’s approach to prayer for healing …
“We cannot dictate to God. The prayer of faith is not to make myself believe that just the very thing I ask will be done and done in just my way … but a trust in God’s power to do what I ask and a trust in His love that if He does not do it it is because i is better not to have it done and to leave the decision with Him.” – D.L. Moody
