Running for The Crown
The writer of Proverbs states,
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."Proverbs 3:5,6.
We may not know what life has in store for us. We may go through many trials, tribulations and temptations but through it all we must trust God.
The apostle Paul equates our life in Christ as running a race. He states,
"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." 1Corinthians 9:24,25.
Are you racing for the crown of life Jesus offers?
Please think about it.
