The Race

Categories: Glory, Love

“Slow down,” says God
“Let me set the pace
For I am starter and finisher
Of your spiritual race.

I was there from the beginning
When you were getting ready
I stood with you on the start line
Calming you, keeping you steady.

At every moment of the race
I’ll be there, rely on me
Together we will finish
Will gain the victory.

Then as you hold your trophy
A broad smile upon your face
You’ll bask in all my glory
Understand the full meaning of grace.

1 Corinthians 9:24-26
Philippians 3:14
