one step forward, two steps back

My knee has seemed to be getting better and I've felt so encouraged that the exercises seem to be helping in the strength training. But, yesterday afternoon, (not even during the 11mile run in the morning- but well into the afternoon), I felt the familiar ache in my knee and had to get an ice pack out of the freezer.  It's just a reminder to me that sometimes we take a step forward and then realize we have to step back again knowing that we still have a ways to go.  We're not done yet with the work that needs to be done in the healing. 

So, with this ice pack on my knee right now as I am typing, 
I am thinking of you all on those "one step forward, two steps back" kind of days.  
I am praying that you will keep on keeping on 
with hope
with persistence
with tenacity
 and with one foot in front of the other.
