THE RACEA man came to the Gadfly saying, “I am no good. I keep trying and keep failing. God must hate me.” The
Gadfly said, “There was a woman in a race who fell before the whole crowd and
broke her leg. But she continued on and refused to quit. She crawled, dragging
her broken body across the finish line, and finished last. When the race was
over the whole crowd rose to its feet and cheered, not for the winner, but for
the one who was last. I tell you, there is more honor before God for the one
who always fails, but has the courage to keep trying, than for all those to whom
it came easy.” |
