“Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.” (Psalm 139:14 NLT)
In track and field, many of the shorter distance races are held on regulation tracks with precise measurements. The 200 and 400 meter races have separate lanes and staggered starting points for each runner. Since the outer lanes are longer than the inner ones, this ensures that each runner covers the same distance.
God made each of us unique and complex. We have different approaches and paces as we run toward Christ. There are linear thinkers, abstract philosophers, skeptics, dogmatists, conformists, intuitives, sensors, traditionalists, conservatives, and progressives, all on the same journey. While some adhere to their native theological beliefs, others may explore new ideological perspectives. We may have individual life paths and staggered starting points of faith, but the goal is the same: to cross the finish line. Thus, let us run this race with consistent drive, unflagging determination, and enduring purpose.
