"12Therefore this is what I will do to you, Israel, and because I will do this to you, Israel, prepare to meet your God.” Amos 4:12
For every human being like you and me, one day regardless of our disire, we will meet with God and at this meeting we will be held accountable for everything we did or failed to do, then we should be aware that there is a greate commitment to be reminded every day of ours lives, we must prepare ourselves in every moment, we can not waste time, but we dedicate ourselves in everything, trying to grow every day in the grace and knowledge as guides in the sacred scriptures. "10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad." 2 Corinthians 5:10
As an athlete preparing for the Olympics games, it becomes necessary to follow some rules and to be disciplined within a goal of training, likewise we should be about God's orders.
The training process for the athletes is very intense, it is necessary that they reach their physical goals and are ready to win, many suffer from muscle pain during the preparation process, it is necessary and it iis similar to achieve salvation. "24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. 25 Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last, but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. 26 Therefore I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air. 27 No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize. " 1 Corinthians 9:24-27
