Life Is Like a Marathon

Life is like a marathon.  It's a long journey that everybody has to travel.  It may have a beautiful beginning, averagely beautiful, ordinary beautiful, superb beautiful full of ribbons and rainbow.  Conversely, the beginning of the journey can be not beautiful at all.

 We are brought and put on the running track of life.  We are planned to be on a smooth track and not on an uneven track.  So, we put on the best pair of shoes and the best clothes.  All these beautiful things are done by our dear parents.  We do not face any turns in our life when we are young.

 When we are in our tender days, we always catch by our parents before we fall.  Some of us are very lucky, we have never fallen before.  There is no hurt on our four limbs or spiritually.  For some children their path to life is smooth; on the other hand, some of them have to go through many turns in their life, before they grow up.

 Well, we have grown up, we have to walk by ourselves, and we start facing many turns in our life!  What are the paths of life are we on now? Whether they are spiritual or physical paths, they both are very important to us. We need someone to walk with us at every turn of our life.

Now, it is time we need Him to meet us at every turn!

Praise Lord, HE catches me at every turn of my life!
