Focus on what matters. While not an Olympic event, one in every of my favorite parts of the Olympics is watching the medalists, like 100-meter champion, Noah Lyles, look for his or her family and friends the moment they learn they are going to receive his medal. Almost greater than the medal itself, it’s the love and support of the people around them that’s the actual prize. In the identical way, we will spend our lives chasing material goods or things we predict will fulfill us, nevertheless it’s the love of our community, neighbors, friends, and family that really makes life matter. Colossians 3:16,
“Let the message of Christ dwell amongst you richly as you teach and admonish one other with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.”
This scripture reminds us that being in a community and supporting “each other” is how we run our spiritual race well and the way we live for what matters in life.
