Just One More Round: LOL!

Ok - this is a quick one but I just had to share it.

Isaac and I went for our run today.  It went much better than my last run: I kept my focus and I was feeling pretty good - until about half way into the run.

I started to struggle a little and was, once again, wondering "why in the world" I was doing this to myself ... then I heard this:

Round one wasn't what I thought it'd be
Round two I'm struggling to breath
3, 4, 5, 6, 7 times I wondered why I stepped inside this ring

I seriously laughed. out. loud. Right there on the treadmill - in front of the whole gym.   I am sure they thought I was nuts but God used that moment to remind me that he does have a sense of humor - and the rest of that song, especially the line "I'm pushing through the pain that tries to feed me lies that I won't reach the end,"  got me through to the end.

So here's a little Barlow Girl to get you through what ever you may be struggling with today.  You may be knocked down - but not for the count.  Just keep on swinging...

I may be knocked down and bruised
But I'm here to tell you
That I may be knocked down but not for the count
1,2,3,4
So take me one more round
I'll just keep fighting
One more round
You're messing me up but I'm still here

One more round I'll come out swinging
One more round
I'm telling you now I'm not gonna lose it

It's so hard to get up off the floor again
But I know that victory is when
I'm pushing through the pain that tries to feed me lies that I won't reach the end
I may be bloodied and so bruised
But I'm here to tell you
That I may be knocked down but not for the count
1,2,3,4
So take me one more round I'll just keep fighting one more round
You're messing me up but I'm still here
One more round
I'll come out swinging
One more round

I'm telling you now I'm not gonna lose it
I am not defeated
Though you cannot see it
I have never won a battle on my own
I find strength in weakness
I find hope in believing
God is for me who can bring me down?
So take me one more round
I'll just keep fighting

One more round
You're messing me up but I'm still here
One more round
I'll come out swinging one more round
I'm telling you now I'm not gonna lose it here
I'm not gonna go down now
Try to bring me
I'll come out swinging
