Millions of athletes all over the world are striving to win a gold medal. Children (and/or their parents) begin training at very young ages and invest a lot of time, money, and energy to follow the path to the Olympic podium.
Most of us, though, are not Olympic athletes. Not even close.
However, we all invest a lot of time, money, and energy in other things: family, friends, neighbors, work, fashion, rest, play, yard work, screens, exercise, financials, decor, humor, etc....everything temporary....everything except eternity!
How much time do you invest each day considering eternity? Striving to follow Jesus? Seek God? Listen to Him? Consider life and time beyond right now?
We will not receive gold medals this side of heaven....but the gold in heaven is definitely worth the wait! :)
"Train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come" I Timothy 4:7,8
