When someone runs a race, they try to run as fast as they can to be the first across the finish line.
When we run the race that is set before our lives, we are to run with patience, otherwise we will miss the mark, and what God is doing in our lives.
Stop trying to rush through your life as though it’s a race, but run with patience to observe all that God is doing in and through you.
Hebrews 12:1 (KJV) – wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us.
