Some Thoughts On Christian Living


The Christian life can be thought of as a race, but it is not a competition. As Christians, each of us is inching toward our goal of eternal life. Though there are challenges along the way, we remain focused on the supernal blessings in Christ.

The fact there is no competition enhances the Christian race. We are strengthened by the fellowship of our fellow “team members.” From a heart of love, we willingly “bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2). Encouragement that is sincerely given provides a “cushion” from the bumps and bruises of daily life. Together, in Christ, we are in joyful pursuit of eternal life.

“And if children, then heirs – heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together” (Romans 8:17).
