Here is the culmination of some of cherished things that I am discovering on my amazing run with Jesus.

cloudy

Well, Madison is again overcast which is a good reflection of my emotions of the day.  After a not so great race last night, the clouds seemed to enclose my mind, wrapping around every thought casting a little shadow over everything.  I realize that it is just one race and a small one at that but, with the countless hours and hard work I have invested I wish I had a little something to show for it.

Obviously I want recognition, my mind and my thoughts have been shaped to seek this because of the world I live in.  In this world I am considered mediocre, not good enough, not pretty enough, not smart enough.  But, to whose standards am I being compared to?  If I am mediocre than what is awesome and amazing? Who decides what is "the best"?  Who sets the standards?  No one in the views of the world can ever be the best thing or the best person ever, it's just a fact; there is always going to be someone smarter or better or faster than you.


Well it is a great thing that I have Jesus who loves me and tells me that I am amazing and awesome and smart and good.  He doesn't compare me to anyone else, He just loves me.  HE is AWESOME!

PTL :)
