Motivation – when it lives, it thrives – when it’s waning, not much is required to kill it.
Interestingly enough, though I wasn’t awake enough to realize which wall we would be praying against, I do recall being unmotivated to roll out of bed & start the day.
Philippians 3:12-4:8 (King James Version)
¹²Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
¹³Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
¹⁴I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
¹⁵Let us therefore, as many as be perfect, be thus minded: and if in any thing ye be otherwise minded, God shall reveal even this unto you.
¹⁶Nevertheless, whereto we have already attained, let us walk by the same rule, let us mind the same thing.
¹⁷Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
¹⁸(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
¹⁹Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
²⁰For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
²¹Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
¹Therefore, my brethren dearly beloved and longed for, my joy and crown, so stand fast in the Lord, my dearly beloved.
…
⁴Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice.
⁵Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.
⁶Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
⁷And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
⁸Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

Tomorrow, Day 7, 7 laps, starting at 4am – how’s that for motivated?
