this is like some long long marathon and everyone's running together.
some faster, some slower.
up ahead, i can see a few people who are taking the lead.
turning to those beside me, we all decided to keep up with them.
but along the way, distractions got a hold on me.
perhaps they are flowers?little pebbles along the road?
and i picked them up one by one, adoring each and every single one of them.
before i know it, when i looked up again, i was lagging behind.
so i tried to catch up.but things i've picked up along the way held me back, weighed me down.
i threw some of the withered flowers away but the pebbles still held me down.
even then, i still constantly looked back at those flowers that i've thrown away, thinking how beautiful they once were.
i continue running but it seems that those in front are just way too hard to catch up with.
feeling discouraged, i've tried and failed many times.
but now, it is different.
it's time to just throw off every single pebble, every single flower.
even if i cant catch up with those in front, i'll run with those who are beside me now.
i'm going to give those who are ahead of me support, cheer them on!
at the end of it all, we're all gonna meet Jesus together.
