I.B.S. #40

1 Corinthians 9:25

- "And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptable crown; but we an incorruptable"

We strive for an incorruptable crown. That's an encouragement for us. This week as we have the theme of discipline, its so refreshing to know that all that we go through, all our trails and tribulations, when we get through them with Christ, we will recieve an incorruptable crown. It kind of makes me sad to know that there are other people who are living in the world and for the world and who, because of thier descisions, are going through lifes hardships and when they reach the end of thier lifes, their crowns, their medals, their achievements will crumble at the judgment seat. It actually upsets me that the life I was living was a lie from the Devil that I fell for. With all the stupid stuff I was doing, I would have entered eternity and all I was on earth wouldn't matter. We need to be telling other people about Christ on a personal level. I know that I would rarely share the gospel with friends, but how in the world could I care about my friends and not tell them the truth.
