Candace Cameron Bure

that loved God so much and yet his life only got worse.

The amount, I mean, the amount of abuse and torture and beatings and jail time up until death and yet he became more and more humble throughout his entire life until the very end of it and it is inspiring to me and I,

I wanna run the race well.

That is what's most important to me.

I look at the life that I've been given and I think about, oh God, if you give me 100 years to live, I wanna run it well and I don't wanna get to the end and peter out.

I don't wanna get to the end and say, what was it all for?

I wanna run the race with joy.

And encourage others along the way to do the same and run with passion and heart, knowing that my arms are wide open and gods are wide open going, come on, come on.

I'm the finish line.

I'm the finish line.

I'm the medal.

I'm the goal.

Like that's the race for me.

Yeah.

The very first place you start

is right in your own heart, wherever you are, in that room, close your eyes, get in a peaceful place, and just start talking to God.

And you might not know what to say to God, and you can tell him that and say, God, I want to run this race, and I don't know where to start.

Could you lead me how?

Could you show me?

Would you please set my heart and my mind on a path towards you and to knowing you?
