1 Timothy 4:8

8 “Physical training is good, but training for godliness is much better, promising benefits in this life and in the life to come.”

We are willing to put in work and grind out brutal workouts in order to see our physical bodies become the best that we can possibly make them.  We do that so that we can withstand attacks on our physical bodies and care for ourselves while maintaining good health.

We must also be willing to work on and train our spirit man by reading the word and spending time with God in prayer to strengthen our spirit.  When we do this, we strengthen our spirits to be able to withstand the attacks of the enemy on our lives.  Make sure you are training your spirit as, if not more diligently than you do your physical body.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Be content with the gifts and blessings that God grants you. We all fall into the trap of wanting more…..just a little more money, a little bigger house, a nicer vehicle, just a little more time, a little more grace from our spouses. The bottom line, though, is that no matter how much “more” we have in terms of worldly possessions, it will never provide the fulfillment and joy that we are seeking. No matter how much “better” our circumstances become, we will never be satisfied. We must avoid the temptation to keep wanting more, and instead, be content and thankful for everything that God has already given to us.

In turn, really push yourself. Work on form. Honor the process by doing the work. It’s not about adding up your numbers but about quality.

Philippians 4:10-13

Paul was able to endure through ,and rejoice in, his unimaginable suffering by focusing his attention on his obedience to the Lord.  We must find our “why” in every challenging situation and make that our focus. If your attention is turned toward your WHY, you will be able to endure any level of difficulty or suffering. Focus on your WHY and rejoice in your suffering
