When my wife won first place on her first indoor triathlon, I knew its occurrence weeks before it was achieved.
She is wired with serious tenacity that turns every effort towards scaling heights.
She inspires me.
I am spurred to overcome my propensity to entertain fear on its assault to halt my personal aim. The race that is set calls for a wild resolve tamed by holiness.
To win, one must enter the cross-training of suffering.
Via Dolorosa is the path that leads to our Golgotha but akin to the spectacle of Christ's quintessential victory over death, we are invited to live a life of true gain.
The medal comes from a heart laid steady on Christ's magnanimous strength.
