Exercise

Spirituality is not a spectator sport. We cannot rely on others to get us into shape. A spiritual life requires personal effort, for a lifetime. Many of us want to be stronger in our faith but are we ready to exert ourselves?

Should we put any less effort into exercising our spiritual muscles than we do our physical? Has our culture trained us to expect immediate results with little to no effort? What are you willing to do and how would you like others to think of you? If you are called a Christian athlete, would people see the same strength in your faith that they do in your body?
