Running and Remembering

I had a wonderful 3 mile run today. I took it nice and easy. I decided to listen to my ipod and one of the songs I listened to really said everything I've been thinking about lately. Here are the lyrics: It's called Thoughts of You by the Barlow Girls...

Thoughts of You and how You've changed me fill my mind.
Without You where would I be?
So even though I've tried to express my thanks it never comes out how I hoped.
I want to say so much more, so with these simple words I'll try...
I Love You...my heart is Yours, only Yours.
I long to give You all of me, my everything, my everything.
God, I never could repay You, You gave everything.
Without You where would I be?
You still loved me even when I pushed You away,
You stood there and waited til the day I'd return.
So even though I've tried to express my thanks it never comes out...
I want to say so much more so with these simple words I'll try...
I Love You...my heart is Yours, only Yours, Jesus.
I want to give You all of me, I love You, I love You, my heart is Yours, only Yours.
I long to give You all of me, my everything, my everything,
Thoughts of You and how You changed me fill my mind.

My awesome son figured out how to put this song on my blog so it can play! It will be my running mantra. A mantra is an expression or sacred words often repeated to facilitate a sense of motivation or encourage a transforming of the mind. All those big wig professional runners say you need a running mantra. So that's it, my spiritual running mantra as I run the race of faith, wrapped in a love song to my Savior, my Hero of all Hero's - Jesus!
