i have a dream

I have a dream that one day I will run a marathon, it's on my list of a 100 things I want to do in my life time, but the problem is that I don't train. I'd also love to do a parachute jump but I'm terrified of heights.
I reckon the parachute jump might happen because I just have to get the guts together to go to a weekend training. The marathon however needs a year of daily discipline. Running needs to become a part of my life if that dream is ever to happen.
Knowing Jesus is like that marathon. If I really want to know him as more than an aquaintance on the street he has to become part of my daily life. I need to practise the daily discipline of sitting in his presence and "be still and know that I am God."
