"The First Mile"

I was running this morning and God brought this commercial back to my heart. I think this commercial paints a great picture of what happens to us spiritually when we choose to run (live a life) with Christ. Sin will try to entangle you so it makes it harder to run. We have areas in our life that bring us down could be people, our past, relationships, or even family. We only have two choices; we can let our past pull us down or we can continue to keep running. We have to know that we have an enemy that wants us to give up in our race. He want to discourage you and make you think "It's to Hard"!! I want to challenge you to "Stay in the Battle" don't give up keep running and push through was has stopped you in the past!! Hebrews 12:1 says 1Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
