LET US RUN WITH PATIENCE
Oh what darlings you are! I love watching you grow up dearest ones. I love your tenacious grip when I begin to move and advance forward. I love your passion for Me as you run your race. I simply love watching you grow up. Oh My love for you abounds – you give Me SUCH joy!
Yes dear ones you are running your race and pursuing Me with everything you have! I AM watching you totally spend yourselves as you pursue Me: knocking, seeking, asking. You haven’t let go and I don’t want you to! You run with passion and I want even more flame in your torch. May the passion in your bellies grow stronger as My love burns brighter in your hearts.
Even so, learn to run with patience and self-control and endurance. Precious ones, your race is lifelong. Learn to be patient in your waiting upon Me. As you tarry in My Presence, learn the secret of stillness and rest. Put away all distractions, clammer and hindrances that keep you from that rest. Learn the secret of putting your body under subjection to My Spirit within you. Yes persevere, but stay under and remain in My Presence. You will find in that place of patience you will find strength to run and strength to wait and in so doing you shall win your prize.
1 Corinthians 9:24-27 Know you not that they who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? So run, that you may obtain. 25 And every man that strives for self control is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible. 26 I therefore so run, not with uncertainty; so fight I, not as one that beats the air: 27 But I roughly treat my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.
Hebrews 12:1 Therefore seeing we also are surrounded with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which does so easily ensnare us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us…
