I don't run only to stay fit. Staying fit is a great by-product of my running. I run because for 30-60 minutes, I can shut out the world around me. Free of the distractions of home, where there is always something to do, I have at least 30 minutes to myself, to think, plan, dream and hope. At the end of my run, I put Gungor on my MP3 player, and walk and look at the creation around me, that God has made by His own hands and I am overwhelmed. Overwhelmed by His love, by His power, by His might, by His holiness, by His goodness, by His mercy and by His grace.
This is why I run.
Stuff we do...stuff I think...stuff I feel
