 For instance, over in 1 Corinthians 9 24, he reminded us that we must run to win in the race of life. He said in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets a prize. You should run in such a way that you will win. Run to win. Run for first place. Not for honorable mention. You know in schools today or in athletic events, they'll give participation trophies. This is not good. There's winners and losers in a race.
