As we walk...or run!

Times are often the hardest for us when we choose to walk alone. When we don't ask our fellow sisters (or brothers) to come along side us and give us strength. Christine Caine refers often to running our own races....but their are lanes on either side of us. Those people on either side, are we coming along side them or trying to run in their lanes? Do we seek to find our place in the space or just to continue to bump into them? God's word tells us a friend is closer than a brother... to seek that guidance and support along the way is so worth our while. I am so grateful for the "crew" of ladies that God has blessed me with. We are all on separate races in differant lanes but, serving the same God! What an honor to know they have my back and even will be my guard rails along the way!
As I run this race, my lanes have had many turns, changes in terrain, weather shifts, but my Lord has always been there to receive me! What an honor! The lane I am in right now is teaching me so much. As the weight is coming off, so are some of the shackles I allowed myself to wear. Things I have hidden behind. Praise God for those who are there to wipe the tears, correct my words and give me strength! We are in this journey together, just in different lanes...
