The last mile was in sight; she knew that it was not going to be her running. She dug deep, pulled out what God built and trained to endure. The opposition was harsh, physical and mental pain was extreme fighting against her mind, telling her to stop. She silenced the voices; her focus became one with the Lord.   She heard the voice of encouragement say, “one stride at a time.” She listened and followed her Lords leading.

As you embark on this last mile, whether you are experiencing health issues, a death of a family member, loss of innocence or struggling with identity. God hears your cries. He knows your pain. Dig deep, listen to the voice of encouragement and take one stride at a time until you finish the race.

The opposition will always be present pressurizing you. What you do with the opposition determines how you finish the race. Finish Well!

Whether blessings or conflict, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;”  Phil 4:6 NKJV

For, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. “ Phil 4:13 NKJV

“and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together. For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.” Romans 8:17-18 NKJV
