Sometimes my life feels like I’m running on a treadmill… I’m putting in the effort, but never getting where I want to go, and getting bored with where I’m at. But then I realize I’m not considering what God wants… He wants me here, putting in the effort for His cause, and not my own. Loving Him so deeply that boredom is unheard of. Surrendering my planned route and taking the path He lays out before each step I take.
Running somewhere new or to something new, does not mean I will be new. God alone renews. Planning out and laboring over a specific route does not mean that’s the one I should take. Running with my eyes on Christ, my Savior, and not myself is the only true way to get anywhere worth going and with unimaginable joy in any circumstances to boot.
