I Do Not Fight Like a Boxer Beating The Air

Do you have self discipline? When you are alone driving do you take the opportunity to spend time with God? When you are at home alone do you take that time to spend it with your Lord? There is a discipline that is needed in order to accomplish these things, but along with that there has to be a choice made in your life, the choice would be simple and should be simple, but we as human beings seem to make things more difficult than they need to be. The choice in this is do I serve God or not? When you make the choice to serve God it is the better choice, will it be easy? Will it become like second nature? This can happen but having this happen will take self discipline, not on your own, but with help from Jesus and your friends to keep you on tack. 

1 Corinthians 9:24 - 27
24 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. 25 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. 26 Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. 27 No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
If we work at it and keep the discipline up with the help of Jesus and not try to accomplish this on our we can finish the race!
So we can accomplish serving God and not hiding in our own self, but give your life to Him completely and you will be blessed.


God Bless you this day.
