Introduction to the Strength series
This will be a short article every Sunday about faith and how it relates to athletics and other things that come to mind. It will be short as so it can be read in one sitting. And if you can not read it in one sitting then you can visit my weblog at the address [http://athleticworship.blogspot.com/].
I have been studying athletic training for three years now. Since then, I have found many similarities between my athletic training and the building of the relationship between Jesus and myself. I have built myself up from a weakling into a powerful creation, in more ways than one. As I was turned to God, I was also turned to a higher level of athletics around at the same time.
I have read articles written by the men and women in the field of athletic training and I have listened to the men and women of the word and the basics are all the same. There are four basic things in order to make yourself grow towards your goal:
- Committing yourself
- Daily Bread
- Workout Everyday
- Recovery
It is most important to commit yourself, if that’s either throwing away junk food to keep that extra fat off you, so not to slow you down, or throwing away that secular pile of magazines that slows your spiritual growth down.
Next time, we will discuss further on things you can do to help yourself commit yourself to the Lord Jesus. We will also be talking about not lying to yourself about your commitment as it is easy to show the world our false commitment to look good.
