Running With Patience
Running With Patience | Radio | Joni and Friends: It’s been a long, long time since I heard the gun at the starting block – when I was a teenager learning how to cope with quadriplegia, I was just getting started in this race. And now, what with cancer behind me and four decades of quadriplegia, I am past that middle distance… and I'm not about to veer off to the left or right, this late in the race. And although I'm near the end of that long stretch in between the start and finish – I'm nearer the finish line now than I was when I first began. So I want to press on through my afflictions to reach for the prize, the high calling of knowing Christ Jesus. I want to hear, “Well done good and faithful servant.” I want to run this race with patience, and finish it with confidence.
