People have often run. We run away from bullies. We run away from danger. We run away from responsibility. Some have even been known to run from commitment. What is it that we are running for? Our lives? Our sanity? Even more importantly, what are we running to? Freedom? Justice? A hiding place?
In the Bible, men like Adam, Jonah, and even Peter discovered that you cannot find a hiding place good enough to hide you from God. So why are we running? The challenge for today is to stop running and start turning to God. What is it that He has for you to do today? Commit to a new ministry? Work on a relationship that seems to have gone south? Serve Him on some mission?
