Runnin'

"Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win." (1 Corinthians 9:24 NAS)

I love the race analogy. It's something that I pray that I'd focus on more often... The idea of living the Christian life as if it is a big race and you're trying to beat everyone else. Not out of mere competitiveness but out of a wholehearted commitment to striving to enter the kingdom, not under your own power, but by the power of God.

"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13 NAS)

I can run.
