Purple Ketchup

I don't want to be purple ketchup. A flare up. A grand opening and then gone. One who walks with God for a few years of my life and then is nowhere to be found. I have just started the race, but from observing older and more seasoned people in my life I am encouraged and see the importance of enduring and "finishing the race." I hope to be like them, the red ketchup. Lasting.
