– know where you are. You have to finish with all you’ve got. Persevere. God wants you to come alive in the season you are in now. 1 CoR 9:24-27. What are you running after? Train yourself to win at the end of a season. Live what you preach. What does it mean to win in life.
To do what you are called to. Press through to the finish line. Never stop fighting what you have won at a point in your life. It’s never too late to start over again in Christ. Always seek to grow. Never just coast. Never give up. Allow the energy of others to spur you on in Christ. Learn from people.
