26.2!
I
did it! (though not as fast or with as much finesse as I would have
liked). Over the past year running has
been a big part of my life and has been part of what defines me as a
person. If you were asked to talk about
me, running would most likely be part of that.
How
else would you define me? Die hard
Steeler fan? Hopefully you would add "Devoted husband and
father" and "Committed follower of
Christ" The definitions you use and the
order that you use them say a lot about who I am more than what I can say about
myself, because that is what I show to others as being the priorities in my
life. If I said I was a
"runner" but all you ever saw me do was eat junk food and sit in
front of the TV all day would you believe me?
The
early Christians did not just call themselves "Christians". That was a name given to them by others which
meant "little Christs". People
saw Christ in them, in their actions, and defined them as being like
Christ. Wow!
When he found him, he
brought him back to Antioch. Both of them stayed there with the church for a
full year, teaching large crowds of people. (It was at Antioch that the
believers were first called Christians.)
Acts 11:26
What
do they see in me? or you?
Run
On!
By
the way – the running isn’t over – and neither is the blog. Stay tuned for further posts.
