Say WORD: Keep Strong, Stay Strong

While watching the Tour de France on the Versus channel, this commercial came up. It reminded me of a central theme of faith and thought that I’d share this morning. Don’t worry, you’ll be getting less typing from me this time.

Minus the expletive in the beginning, I totally agree.

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. 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. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.

– 1 Corinthians 9:24-27 (NIV)

Don’t give into the world. Keep training. Keeping living.

This ain’t a math test.
