A Prayer for the Headlines for Wednesday, June 27th

Good Morning, God,
Lord, the headlines have been about an individual who is in "perpetual motion," a person who is a Triathlete. He bikes, swims, and runs competively and consecutively, without stopping in-between to rest. Is he crazy or is he just driven?
Lord, we think about the things we are driven to do. Oh, yes, Lord, there are things that each of us would drop everything to do - and keep on doing - if necessary. Having and growing in relationships is one of these activities. We can tirelessly run the race of marriage and friendships if we desire to enough. We can keep up with our efforts and stamina when raising and growing in our relationships with our children. We will always be parents, Lord, and our children are worth the efforts.
Then there is our relationship with you, Living Lord. You desire our tireless effort to see you more clearly, love you more dearly and follow you more nearly day by day, because this is what you faithfully do for us. Cause us to tirelessly seek your face each and every day.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
