Marathoning Faith

This morning I ran a 5k. I blinked and it was over. It was a fun run, and I'm glad that I did it.

Recently, I've been reading Ecclesiastes. King Solomon in his most existential self, reminded me that "two are better than one, for they can help each other succeed (eccl. 4:9 NLT)" - as i had a running partner who has kept me encouraged. As a "marathoner", there has been times that I hadn't thought that I needed a running partner - but the verse is true! Even on three miles, It helped tremendously to have a running mate!

This got me thinking about change. Seriously. Sounds weird. But running, training, and especially marathon has stages. I found this post on Great Leadership - and it really affirms the fact that if we understand stages of change, it can help us "marathon" through!

I'm finding that it is easy to be distracted. And I need faith. I need help from others. I need to understand the many stages.
