I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. - Philippians 3:14
There was a marathon event in Lagos, Nigeria yesterday. Hundreds of people started the race. Expectedly, not all finished the race.
Watching a highlight of the marathon, I found some runners fainted on the third mainland bridge. Some couldn't continue, some were distracted along the way, some simply just didn't take it serious, they were just simply walking, talking and chatting.
Life is just like that, we all are running a race, our race finished the day we die or get raptured. Will you reach the finish line like Paul did before you die or you will simply just not take it serious. Just like the Kenyan man that won, he was given a price. The same way too, when we finish this God-given race well, we will also receive our prize.
There will be distractions in the race, so many people who started well might not finish well. Some will try to run the race without the Grace of God thereby fainting on the way.
I ask you, are you running the race of life well enough?
Good Morning and a Happy Sunday to You
