The Olympics have long held a magnetic fascination for me. I am glued to the television set every four years watching skaters, gymnasts, and divers who have ultimate control over every sinew and muscle in their disciplined bodies. My favorite event to watch is one of Olympic greatness and prowess that seems Herculean in effort: I am hypnotized by the men and women who run the 26.2-mile marathon.
Hundreds upon hundreds of runners, from every nation in the world, line up with anticipation at the starting line of this unmatchable race. Each athlete has a dream in his or her heart to run with strength and diligence and to cross the finish line if not first, then at least with honor. The judge shouts, “On your mark ... get set ... Go!” And with that two-letter word, comes the blast of the gun that marks the beginning of the race for all who have determined to run. Every runner has his or her eyes set on the goal and most have trained for years for this one life-defining moment.
In spite of years of training, vitamins, expensive running shoes, and in spite of trim, athletic bodies, not everyone finishes well. Some stumble and fall just yards or even inches from the finish line.
How will you finish your race? If you are diligent to put into daily practice this list of God-charged character traits, you will finish well and strong. You will not stumble nor fall. You will finish the course of your life with no regrets and will have experienced an extraordinary life of Heaven-delivered abundance and growth.
Kingdom living at its best is always attained when obedience is honored. Virtuous living is the acknowledgement and the agreement that God’s ways are always best. Neither you nor I nor any other created being has ever had a better idea than God. Your life will be a rare and beautiful reflection of the beauty and joy of God’s character when you obey with diligence the life that the Scripture presents.

You, in partnership with God, will design the life that will occupy the length of your days. While you may not be able to determine all of the events and circumstances of your life, the atmosphere of your life is entirely up to you.
