The Finish Line

Logged exactly 12 hours yesterday. That brings the total for the week to 36.08 by the clock. 4 hours to go.

This morning I got in at 5:31 AM and plan to work until 9:31 AM and then head home - I just need the server and other systems to hold together for another 4 hours:) Selfish prayer, "God, not now."

The following are lyrics from a Steve Taylor song, "Finish Line".

Off in the distance
Bloodied but wise
As you squint with the light of the truth in your eyes

And I saw you
Both hands were raised
And I saw your lips move in praise
And I saw you steady your gaze
For the finish line

Every idol like dust
A word scattered them all
And I rose to my feet when you scaled the last wall
And I gasped
When I saw you fall
In his arms
At the finish line

There you go. After three long days, and two longer weeks, I'm ready to fall in His arms and rest.
I'll post more once I get home, hug my baby, unpack, put my feet up and breath a sigh of relief.
