The Bible encourages us to keep pace with Christ Jesus day by day, year in and year out, as we slowly become like him.

They that wait upon the LORD . . . shall walk, and not faint.

As we walk, we often wait . . . —for answers to prayer —for God’s gifts of healing —for our loved ones to come to faith.

We walk on by faith, especially through life’s dark valleys.

As we wait for the Lord, he renews our strength. It’s his promise!

Page 9: The tortoise always wins! Are you more like... T The fleet-footed hare? Or the steady-stepping tortoise?

This is not our strength; this is God’s strength!

In Jesus’ death and resurrection, God has given you new life. Run with it!

You never walk alone. Your Savior himself walks beside you!
