Running

走ることが大好き。
特に最近です。
走る時 神様の翼のように持って 走りながら 生活の悩みとか一瞬に忘れれる。走りながら祈る事もできる。

今朝面接の結果はメールからもらった。残念だった。成功しなかった。今度本当に悲しすぎた。ね。。どうしてですか?なぜですか?頭にいろいろなことを考えて溢れるようになった。けどけど 私は確信して辛いでもまた神様の約束を信じます。

こんな悲しさは私の生活の中であまり起こらない。今まで私が欲しいものは大体取れるけど 最近ね。。難しいそう。難しいそう。

今神様の約束を信じる以外 他の方法は無い。主は私が生まれる前に もう私のことが知るから。私のことを大切に考えるから。

もうすぐ週末だ。後で交わりがある。がっかり気持ちは止まないけど 後でできる限りに普通の顔をする。主の素晴らしいさを賛美するつもり。

頑張ってオレンジ。

I love to run, especially recently.
Running frees my mind.
Running reminds me of God's grace and His love. It's just like the breeze that can't be caught but can be felt. As I run, I feel as if my whole body is on fire.

Yesterday, at Bedok Reservoir, I saw a FedEx colleague. Jacky is from another department and he called out to me as I ran past him and so, we ran together and chit-chatted while running. It was a good run. Sometimes, life is so unexpected and so strange; the twists and turns, the people we meet, the choices and demands. And while doing my cool-down after the run near my house, a kind grandmama came up to me and talked to me. She invited me to her house and hmmm, yeah, she just talked to me about her life. It was a very different evening for a change.

To be able to run long-distance, you need to train and prepare yourself physically and mentally. You need to build up your stamina. I feel that at this point in my life, that's what I need. I need strength. I must develop stamina. Stamina = power to endure, power to trust, power to keep on keeping on, power to belive, power to have faith. I need stamina in all areas of my life. :)

In running, there are also recovery periods. I need to know my own limits and weaknesses and I must also know when to rest. Only then can I continue to run the long long race and emerge victorious at the end.


But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Isa 40:31
