-Setting your heart on the prize
"I do all this for the sake of the gospel, that I may share
in its blessings. Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only
one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who
competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that
will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I
do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating
the air. No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I
have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize." 1 Corinthians 9:23-27
