Do
you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the
prize? Run in such a way that you may
win. Everyone who competes in the games
exercises self-control in all things.
They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable.
Therefore
I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating
the air; but I discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have
preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.

Corinthians 9:24-27
What can we say? Are we no one's example or are we everyone's example? Do we live as we live so we can get to heaven or do we live as we live so that others may see and believe that our lives as Christians are not only heavenly minded but earthly rewarding?
Think about it.
