“No pain no gain.” “You have to pay your dues.” “The only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.” We have all heard the catchy phrases. The challenge is to apply them.
The other day I was on the bike with the wind whistling through my helmet. Everything was great, until I hit the hills. I was trying to ride with a friend who is an accomplished rider. When we hit the hills, I hit the wall; my speed and energy dropped significantly and I just could not keep up. I had not paid the price – miles and miles on the bike with quads and lungs burning.
When it comes to spiritual things there is a price to pay also. The bad news is that the price to connect with God and spend eternity with Him is greater than you or I can pay. The good news is Jesus has already paid the price for us. Sounds like great news to me! I’ll keep working on the biking.
