No Words...

My wife sent me an email the other day with this video embedded. As I watched, I couldn't help but think about my relationship with diety and how I feel that he carries me, despite my weaknesses and my inability to do for myself in so many areas.

Here is the information surrounding the clip:

A son asked his father, 'Dad, will you take part in a marathon with me?' The father, despite the fact that he has 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 once again, 'Yes'.

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. View this
