The Race

It is a couple of hours before my first race.. I have been laid up sick for 2 weeks with one half of a practice in those two weeks.. This was suppose to be my crunch weeks that I really started pressing my speed., I can't help but wonder if God is saying "look Scotty this is not your cup of tea back off" or if I am under attack for trying to achieve some kind goal in my life that has been a positive impact on my spirtualy, emotionally, & physically. With that being said I am pushing forward in the morning to run my first of many, or to run my first of my last race.. Even if they have to pick me up off the road I will be running this race. Tommorrow I am 531 in the race and prayerfully I will run a good race and have more to refect upon tomorrow night.. Father thank you for allowing me to run this race, and allowing me to go on this journey with you.. Please continue to speak to my heart through this process and thank you for my friendships that have been encouraging me along the way. Please be with them and bless them for their kindness and encouragement & most of all father please except our ways in which we try to honor you through our efforts in various ways.. thank you for this gift and chance to race.. Father please give us a restful night and help us to rave our hearts out tommorrow.. Please father do these things in the name of your Son Jesus amen..... 6 hours.... Goodnight!
