Day 186: The Most Important Prize

For many years prize giving was a very important part of my school days, and I won many, many prizes. But there’s one prize that still has to be won and that’s only for those that keep the faith, fight the fight, and finish the course. And I believe that Paul was kept true to the end because he saw something beyond time. He looked out into eternity and he saw the great prize giving when the gold medal and the silver medal and the bronze medal will be given out. And I think some of us would be rather surprised at who gets the gold medal. It won’t be the speed with which we ran. It will be the faithfulness with which we served.
