Friday

..thank you Max Lucado.

I recently posted a blog about how I run. The purpose was to talk about my usual tendencies and to try to make myself accountable to toward changing these habits.

Today, I read the blog of another runner. Coincidence? I don't believe in it.

As I prayed about running tonight, I read a chapter from Max Lucado's latest book Facing your Giants. Again...anything but coincidence.

Here's what Max has to say about runners:

Moses ran from justice, but God used him.
Jonah ran from God, but God used him.
Rahab ran a brothel...
Samson ran to the wrong woman...
Jacob ran in circles...
Elijah ran into the mountains...
Sarah ran out of hope...
Lot ran with the wrong crowd...but God used them.
"The Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart." 1 Samuel 16:7
Guess there's hope for us all!
