Training!

"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." -I Corinthians 9:25 (NIV)
It has been almost a year since I decided that I needed to start exercising regularly.  While I didn't have a goal to compete in any athletic event, I knew that I needed to do something to feel better, to be healthier.  I have not been perfect in my exercise routines, but I have made progress and the results of my training are visible.  When we decide that we need to train, we shouldn't focus just on physical training!

Our training should be more than keeping ourselves healthy through physical activity.  We also need to train and prepare spiritually.  The good news is that we have a training manual - the Bible - and a personal trainer - Jesus Christ - ready to guide us!  We  need to make time in our schedules for time in prayer, reflection, and training with God.  It is through our training that we can become closer with God.  As we get closer to God, we will see the results of our spiritual training throughout our lives!

Take time to train in God's Word and through prayer, then prepare for results!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for providing resources that I can use to train both physically and spiritually.  Help me to stick to a training plan that includes time In Your Word and in communication with You.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
