Recently, my wife and I made the decision to start swimming. As a result we bought a 10-swim pass at our local pool to get started. This decision was made out of the realisation that we needed to be more active and get our level of fitness up so we could lead a healthier lifestyle.
Today we see a large number of people that also have made those same personal lifestyle choices. How many people do you see run, walk or ride their bikes now!
While we may make these and other choices in life get our bodies healthier, do we make the same choices when it comes to our spiritual life?
I suggest that we need to work out our spiritual lives with the same dedication and commitment as we would our bodies. We need to make the same healthier lifestyle choices in our spiritual life if we to grow, so we can be more than followers of Christ but rather Warriors of Christ. If you know of people that are warriors for Christ then I would say they are men and women that soak up the word of God (more than just read it!), they act on the Word of God and also they are people of prayer.
If we are going to be able to be called warriors for Christ then we need to develop those same disciples into our spiritual journey with God.
