1 Corinthians 9:24 reminds us, "Know ye not that they which run in a race run all, but one receiveth the prize? So run, that ye may obtain." The prize is not for starters. It's for finishers.

Paul respected athletes because they didn't just train—they finished. The same is true for us. God is looking for finishers, not sprinters who quit when the race gets hard. Heaven isn't clapping for good intentions—it's rewarding those who endured until the end.

Press forward today. One completed step fuels the next ten. Don't let your life end as an "almost." Run like Paul, who declared, "I have finished my course."
