Pastor Adeboye told the story of how the director of the film, ‘Ben Hur’, had encouraged the lead actor to learn to drive the chariot himself instead of using a stunt double. The actor, Charlton Heston, took up chariot-driving lessons, and became quite good at it. After acquiring the skills, Heston returned to the director and said, “I think I can drive the chariot all right, but I’m not sure I can actually win the race.”
With a smile on his face, the director told the skeptical actor, “All you have to do is stay in the race, and I’ll make sure you win it!”
Wow!
The DIRECTOR of our lives, and affairs, GOD ALMIGHTY, says to tell you, “STAY IN THE RACE OF LIFE, AND I WILL ENSURE YOU WIN IT!” Please, let’s keep HOPE ALIVE, and keep LIVING and keep BELIEVING! Things may be tough and hard, but you’re tougher and harder than anything this life (and economy) may bring your way. Hold on, change is coming. Stay in the race!
Have a joyful weekend.
