Good morning! The Apostle Paul was deeply entrenched in the culture of the day which had a lot of competitive games much like the Olympics of our modern day. So, he used a lot of references to this in striving for faith.
He emphasized not giving up, but pushing towards the goal of heaven. He points us to Christ so we never lose sight of the greatest warrior ever known and stay full of faith. Have you lost focus of the goal of knowing Christ?
Those who win a race are those who stay focused and keep their eyes on the goal. In the day we live, there are many things that can distract you if you let them. Don't be distracted, but run towards Christ and stay focused on Him so you don't lose the race of faith and can do what it takes to make a great day!
