IT ALL DEPENDS ON GOD!

With all that God is doing in Church at the moment I'm so glad that it doesn't depend on me! This video sums up what God does for us.

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?'
The father who, despite having a heart condition, says 'Yes'. They went on to complete the marathon together.
Father and son went on to join other marathons, the father always saying 'Yes' to his son's request of going through the race together.
One day, the son asked his father, 'Dad, let's join the Ironman together.' To which, his father said 'Yes' to.
For those who didn't know, Ironman is the toughest triathlon ever. The race encompasses three endurance events of a 2.4 mile (3.86 kilometer) ocean swim, followed by a 112 mile (180.2 kilometer) bike ride, and ending with a 26.2 mile (42.195 kilometer) marathon along the coast of the Big Island ..
Father and son went on to complete the race together.

Thanks so much for sharing the video - I found it awesome and very moving. What a picture of our Father God caring, encouraging, supporting and carrying us, as well as the verse at the end....
