Michael W. Smith
Getting to the starting line is good
Spending the day polishing the starting block is not
Having the right mental gear for the week is good
Still tying your mental shoes to get going on Tuesday is not
If you are going to show up to run
Be ready to run
and run to win
and that's poetiquejustis
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
1 Corinthians 9:24-25
