Tonight at church we had a small wave of "runners". I hope you know what I am talking about. At any given point in a "charismatic"-type service, when things get excitable one or more people will break off running a lap or two around the sanctuary.
I just think this whole display ironically parallels the church of today.
You get so excited about the things of God that you get up and run around in circles and then immediately sit on your butt and wait for someone to excite you enough to get up and run in circles again, all the while never leaving the building. Think about it.

I couldn't agree more. We live like drug-addicts, waiting for the next "fix" of the Spirit, not recognizing the resident power within us to live each day in balanced, faith, love & joy.
Good analogy.
