I am compelled by God to do it. How terrible for me if I didn’t preach the Good News!
So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. 27I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.
Lord God my Father,
Soften my heart to only hear your desire so I may have the discipline needed to do your will with the energy I need.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
