A Runner’s Thoughts: There is a Psalm Prayer which is a part of Sunday Morning Prayer of Week One of Christian Prayer that seems to always stay with me. Perhaps because it is a good reminder of how to live life… “Father creator of unfailing light, give that same light to those who call to you. May our lips praise you; our lives proclaim your goodness; our works give you honor, and our voices celebrate you forever.”
