<\/h6>\nEver wonder why Jesus only lived about 33 years on the earth as a human being\u2026?
\nI\u2019ve thought about it many times\u2026
\nGod spoke and the world manifested into substance\u2026no longer void and without form
\nGod said, let there be light\u2026and there was light\u2026
\nGod said, let the waters come and be separate from the land and it was so\u2026
\nWhy is it so difficult for mankind to believe? I think about that too\u2026
\nI\u2019ve heard about the speed of light\u2026and breaking the sound barrier\u2026but today I read about the speed of God\u2026can you imagine the speed, of, God\u2026?
\nNot even a blink is that fast or a heartbeat\u2026no technology\u2026no craft by land, sea or air is that fast\u2026
\nAnd yet God, slows down, to show us His great love\u2026
\nIf you\u2019re blessed enough to know Him and His love\u2026you will get this\u2026
\nThe speed of God\u2026is so fast he stands still\u2026and waits for us to catch up\u2026
\nWOW\u2026imagine that\u2026
\nGod loves us so much!!!
\nWhen you\u2019re a mommy or a daddy and you let your child chase you\u2026you could easily run far away from them\u2026but you stop so they can catch you\u2026because they are your children and you love them\u2026that\u2019s exactly what God does\u2026he stops for us so we can catch Him\u2026
\nRun\u2026chase after Him with all your heart, body, mind and soul\u2026the speed of God is so fast\u2026He stands still so you can catch Him\u2026<\/h6>\n~Marla Shaw O\u2019Neill July 11, 2019<\/h6>\nPsalm 63:8 The Passion Translation (TPT) With passion I pursue and cling to you. Because I feel your grip on my life, I keep my soul close to your heart.<\/h6>\nI Corinthians 9:24-27 The Passion Translation (TPT) Paul\u2019s Disciplined Lifestyle
\nIsn\u2019t it obvious that all runners on the racetrack[a] keep on running to win, but only one receives the victor\u2019s prize? Yet each one of you must run the race to be victorious. A true athlete will be disciplined in every respect, practicing constant self-control in order to win a laurel wreath that quickly withers. But we run our race to win a victor\u2019s crown that will last forever. For that reason, I don\u2019t run just for exercise[b] or box like one throwing aimless punches, but I train like a champion athlete. I subdue my body[c] and get it under my control, so that after preaching the good news to others I myself won\u2019t be disqualified.<\/h6>\n\nFootnotes:
