When we are out to win a race, you don't carry all your possessions with you.
We put on the lightest clothes we have, take off our big old heavy shoes and put on some light weight running shoes. We have trained and our body is in top physical shape.
The same should be true with the race through this life and living for God. We get rid of the sins that weight us down, we let Jesus take them away never to be seen again. We train buy learning things of God by reading the Bible, and we let the Holy Spirit be our guide out there on this race track called life. If we do these things we will win, we will Overcome this sinful world. Dare To Believe and you are a winner in the eyes of God!!!
12 I’m not there yet, nor have I become perfect; but I am charging on to gain anything and everything the Anointed One, Jesus, has in store for me—and nothing will stand in my way because He has grabbed me and won’t let me go.
13 Brothers and sisters, as I said, I know I have not arrived; but there’s one thing I am doing: I’m leaving my old life behind, putting everything on the line for this mission.
14 I am sprinting toward the only goal that counts: to cross the line, to win the prize, and to hear God’s call to resurrection life found exclusively in Jesus the Anointed. 15 All of us who are mature ought to think the same way about these matters. If you have a different attitude, then God will reveal this to you as well.
16 For now, let’s hold on to what we have been shown and keep in step with these teachings.
