Run Hard Till You Faint

Run … run hard till you faint
Just when you feel like your life means nothing to no one.
You’ve never heard anything in your life that could change you
Until the power of God shoots through you like a bolt of lightning.
Not a voice, but a feeling that says:
“Pick yourself up from the ground and run, hard, toward me.
Stand strong at the gates, remembering why
You were called to suffer more than most.
Remember my sacrifice will forever be greater than yours.”
Run … push
Toward the goal
Never let up as the still small voice
Calls louder and louder
And the narrow gate comes nearer.
Run … run hard till you faint
And the Lord will carry you up to Him.
