Last summer, during the Tour de France, I heard something like this:
"The desire to finish must be stronger than the rationale to quit." Wow!
I love endurance athletic events, in part, because they are a metaphor for the Christian race.
Hebrews 12:1 — Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.
Philippians 3:13,14 — Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Work through the rough patches, the temptations to quit, and keep moving! It’s worth it!
"The desire to finish must be stronger than the rationale to quit."
