Shane,
Thanks for dropping a note on my blog. And thanks also for the update on the pers website with the blog link feature. Hope all is well in Brisvegas for the Beckers!
This was really funny. I used to tell people in my old church that it was like running… you get tired after running for so long, finally you give in and have to sit down and take a break for a while… but while you are sitting down, you start feeling guilty and say, “What am I doing! I should be running, not sitting around!” (or else the leaders say this, whichever)… so you get up and start running again, only to tire out in a few more minutes.
But then, Jesus comes and you fall at His feet, and grace is given you from Him and now you run without growing weary, since it is Him running in you. “Nevertheless I live, yet not I, but Christ liveth in me…” Galatians 2:20
