Pep In My Step

no shoes to wear in today’s race nubby knees show I’m such a disgrace but I’ll show them I‘ll keep the pace its all about regaining if that’s the case It’s not how I look or who I am I am me and I’m not called a sham I’m leading the race each and every mile. may cross the finish line but not in style I have no money for shoes to shod but that’s ok it won’t make me plod It’s how I get there that’s the key to win or lose doesn’t matter to me still some miles I have left to go I made it this far can’t say whoa almost there to cross that line now it’s just a matter of time. looking back I can see I am alone only want to beat the clock on my own over many hills with expanding breaths others gasping for air, and few untimely deaths. this race does not occur on the road it’s against time which I believe I’m owed I have much to gain, less of where I have been if time passes by me they’ll be no end. race against time has purpose but is not futile It’s mountainous, its efforts are brutal to get past the banner of feeling wholeness must have support and a balance for this. common saying, “a rolling stone gathers no moss” without spiritual gravitation I would be at a loss now that he is running beside me I can keep up the pace bless you Lord , my faith and devotion will finish this race. I had no shoes and complained until I met a man who had no feet (past phrase) I had feet but no shoes if that man had feet he too would have been in the race I am fortunate to have feet, having no shoes does not impede my endeavors. Therefore I am opposing defeat and will strive to prevail over hurdles and adversities. A marathon is a challenge alone, without shoes it’s almost impossible for Jesus it was not so for he journeyed many more miles this provided me the endurance to carry on without shoes to the finish line which we both crossed together
