........Thank you for sharing...........I love ": Hebrews 12:1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race set before us."............you put aside your baggage and set goals....the verse makes me want to look up and forward........it takes away my fears and clears my heart and my mind. Thank you again for sharing your amazing story. You are a Blessing!
Love your story Michael! Thank you so much for sharing it! 🙌 I love that your dad was waiting on the field, encouraging you on during that race. I started to cry. 🥰
Thank you for your kind words, Corrina. The moment you speak of in my story is one that touches my heart very deeply. I was blessed with a great father:)
What a phenomenal story, Michael! Thank you for sharing! I absolutely loved reading the part about the race you did with your dad watching and cheering. I had to read it twice. Simply beautiful. I fully appreciate how you schedule and plan for your runs. That surely makes the difference, doesn't it? Thank you again for your honest and uplifting answers to Terrell's questions:)
