6308. Eternity's race

```

The day you made

A sincere commitment to God

You started running along Eternity’s Road

With bullet-speed.

Now you are going

At bullock-cart speed.

True, the race may be

Longer than the longest,

But that does not mean

Your inner speed has to become

Slower than the slowest.
