We are free to run!


Learning to seek and live out God’s will has had the greatest impact on our lives ever -  as husband and wife, as parents, as individuals.

Our blog title might lead you to belive that we are runners. In fact, we are runners in training having not even completed our first race. Nonetheless, our journey is not in vain. Yes, we are physically running (or jogging) for our health. Greater still, we are running in a race commissioned by Christ that we hope will have a lasting impact on someone else’s spiritual and physical health in addition to our own.

A song we have grown to enjoy listening to is “I Am Free.” Part of the chorus says “I am free to run/ I am free to dance/ I am free to live for you.” This song is the source of our blog title.

Once we learned to stop living for self, stop living in the moment, stop living for fleeting moments of pleasure the chains that once held us in bondage no longer render us immobile. In Christ we are free!

Together we take this opportunity to free ourselves from the extra weight that has also left us stationary for quite some time.
