With a nod to the Olympics, I offer this bit of wisdom:
The apostle Paul used the metaphor of athletic competition to describe the Christian life, saying in effect: "Run the race, believer, the prize is waiting." (Philippians 3:12-14)
In Hebrews, the writer encourages Christians to run the race which God has set before them. Jesus ran, even though his course included the cross (Hebrews 12:1-3)
Every day in Africa a gazelle wakes up. It knows that it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed.
Every morning a lion wakes up. It knows that it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running. (Media Management Newsletter)
Here's a news flash: The sun's up
