It’s the annual Standard Chartered Marathon again this coming Sunday, many of my friends are runners and I am always at awe how much time and effort they devote in the running ritual they take from time to time. They would watch their diet, train and pamper their muscles, study and research on how they could improve their performance, take personal and group practice all the time. They want to break their very own record – not exactly to beat others’ record, but their own. I am not so much a sportsman, and i can’t understand where that kind of stamina and perseverance these sporty friends derive from. The mind and will power of these people are amazing. I wish I could apply the same kind of attitude to train my spiritual & religious muscle and put God as my priority so that i can improve my ‘record’ progressively. I am very weak in many sense, and the only thing I have i guess is my desire to learn, I am a curious cat, and I know i always have room to improve, that is the only thing I hang on to to make myself persist. It’s time to do more to be better. Hope all of us – runners of our lives – could break our own record!

Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air.

I pray to God that He would lift me up and be my sturdy rock base where I can stand high up!
