Derek Redmond may not have finished first place… But he managed to finish his race.
Real Incident : 1992 Summer Olympics
1992 – A young man was favored to win the 400-metre race in the Barcelona Summer Olympics.
However disappointment came about 250 meters from the finish.
His hamstring tore. He hobbled into a halt, and then fell to the ground …in pain.
As stretcher bearers made their way over to him, he knew he had to decide.
So despite the pain, he stood up and began to hobble along the track.
Suddenly, a large man pushed through the crowds, fighting back security.
The man was his Father.
“You don’t have to do this,” He told his weeping son.
“Yes, I do,” The son declared.
“Well then,” replied his dad, “we’re going to finish this …together!”
The father wrapped his arms around his son and helped him hobble through the track.
Shortly before the finish line, the father let go of his son and the son completed the race
…with a standing ovation from the crowd of 65,000.
Derek Redmond may not have finished first place… But he managed to finish his race.
Despite the pain, despite the tears …he determined to give his all, motivated by a love so strong…
of a father who picks him up when he falls.
What made the father do that?
…to leave the stands and meet his son on the tracks?
It was the pain on his child’s face.
His son was hurt… but wanted to finish the race.
So the Father came to help him finish.
God is like that.
When we are hurting and fighting to finish, He comes and helps us.
