The Race Of Life
Hebrews 12:1-4
1 Corinthians 9:24-27
1 Corinthians 9:24 - Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain.
The verse above speaks of the physical race. But in the race of life, almost everybody is a winner in as far as he/she can abide by the rules of the game. "So run that you may obtain" means it is possible to run in vain.
You have run in vain if you are successful but cannot reap all the benefits of your success. This shall not be our portion. Therefore, we should do whatsoever we can do within our limit to ensure that we are not one of those that will be disqualified after running the race of life. Shalom!
