I try to make time each day for exercise or physical activity of some sort. I like the feeling from exercise and it is good to be prepared for the physical demands of life. We can be ready to be active, but physical training isn't our only concern. We also need to train for eternity!
Just like we may make time to exercise our physical bodies, we need to set time each day to study and build our spiritual relationship with God. We need to train in God's Word and be prepared for the spiritual obstacles we will face. Through all of our experiences, we can find value in God's presence in our lives. We can also be prepared for eternity with God!
Train your body for now but your spirit for eternity!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for the lessons and training You provide. Help me to be active now and prepared for eternity with You. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
