1 Corinthians 9:24-27
24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one
gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 25 Everyone
who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that
will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. 26 Therefore
I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer
beating the air. 27 No, I strike a blow to my body and make it
my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be
disqualified for the prize.
We call blessed those who showed endurance. - James 5:11 (NRSV)
Thought for today:
Are you easily discouraged? What drives you thoughts to seek immediate
gratification?
