Winning Your Race
Sometimes it seems difficult to pursuit dreams when the shadows of the past darken your vision. Sometimes the vision of success is interrupted by the immediate blur from the smoke of the fires we attempt to put out hourly. Sometimes our vision, our energy, our enthusiasm becomes dark by the many adjustments you make to again remain on your path to successful endeavors.
The past can only affect your vision of the future if you are continuing to look behind you. The smoke clears as we gain clarity on our commitment to our successful objectives by focusing on the most important activity to accomplish at the moment for the ultimate accomplishment of our vision. Our vision, our energy, our enthusiasm increases like the strength of a marathon runner who is constantly adjusting to the conditions of his path, when we continue to find the opportunity in the challenge, the celebration of the next step, and the fuel to be excited about our new level of achievement.
Our challenge is to consistently fuel the hope, the commitment, and the next step with the clarity of our purpose. As God blesses us with the next step, let’s be grateful for the stress that we are challenged with for we will grow stronger in faith, in patience, and in abundance.
Failure would only be in having no enthusiasm to take the next step.
Crawl with no fear. Walk upright with confidence and clarity. Run with all the enthusiasm that God has bestowed in you with full expectation of winning your race.
