Pace Ourselves!

Good Morning Christian Peeps! Think about when we are driving along a road, it may not even be bad weather...but we are needing to get somewhere and all of a sudden a big truck or another vehicle pulls out in front of us. Now if we are in a hurry, we might get mad. But what if that was God trying to get us to pace ourselves. What if by putting that truck in front of us, it saved our lives. Or what if by slowing down we saw something that we otherwise wouldn't have. We talked about the race not being given to the swift but to the one who endures to the end. Well, when we pace ourselves, we are allowing God's timing to become a part of our race. We are not rushing ahead of him, but running with him. Allowing him to control the turns, the stops, the yields. When we do this we not only eliminate some of our frustration but we are allowing God to take us where we are needed, where we can be of service to him. Let's pace ourselves and run alongside God. Let him control our turns, our paths. Be Blessed!
