Get up and run for life!

What Really motivates you?

None of these things move me; nor do I count my life dear to myself, so that I may finish my race with joy, and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God.
—Acts 20:24

I and husby where just pondering over the real essence and purpose of this life.
Is it really just about a good job, quality education, great kids and all?!
Are these the reasons for which we would want to see tomorrow? But then many people who were more excellent at these things still lived and died unfulfilled!
So we came to a focus and this key word stood above others : PURPOSE!
What is your life purpose? If you have discovered it then don’t be put down by anything! If you fall, get back on your feet and keep going! If you haven’t discovered it,then it’s time to seek His face! It’s discovery is what will keep you going even when life looks blank and meaningless!
Get your set goal and run with it!
You can only be a winner at your own game, then it won’t be a competition! You would be running to arrive at your own destiny’s door and not at another’s .
Be determined to finish your own race! Run because you’re alive to do just that! Run your own race! Find out your track and get going, even when you fall, get back on your feet and give it another push! This way, when you die, you would have been doing your best, at your best! Then joy would be a reality when death knocks on your door! Then death’s sting would rather be a blanket and not a pain!
The best race is this: A race ran to live and die testifying of He (Jesus) who loved us enough to give up the glories of heaven and finish His course through a painful death! Testifying of how He overcame death and rose to give anyone who comes ,a second chance at life! Jesus whose 3 days in the grave made the difference required for our freedom and liberty! Which other purpose is worth embracing?
This is the race that has you never disqualified! It is the only race that keeps true eternal joy stirring deep within the depths of your heart even when life seems unfair! This is the course that remains the most glorious venture! Look back no longer! Only if that provokes thanksgiving! Get your eyes fixed on the future and all it holds! Men have died for many reasons, to me this is the most attractive : That He might increase and I might decrease!
(Myina kpa Ter-yem)
