Coach Mike Tomlin and his Pittsburgh Steelers will participate in Super Bowl XLIII tomorrow. I read that he often uses Proverbs 27:17 in communicating with his team: “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
It is true in all areas of life. When I began weight training, I had a workout partner. We spotted weight for one another, and held each other accountable to be at scheduled workouts. It made it easier, and more fun.
Part of my spiritual workout this year will be reading through the Bible. Feel free to ask me how I’m doing. You will be “iron sharpening iron”. Why not get a workout partner to keep you accountable and join me in reading God’s Word. It’s great spiritual training and will benefit all of us.
(A Bible Reading Guide can be found on the Linton Assembly of God Website, lintonag.org. There are different levels of commitment, so everyone can participate in this spiritual exercise.)
