“Do you know that in a race all runners compete, but only one receives the prize?  So run that you may obtain it.  Every athlete exercises self-control in all things.  They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we imperishable one” (1 Corinthians 9:24-25).

In John 1:35-42, we witness the apostles’ first encounter...

My journey in accomplishing this is starting with a good night’s sleep the night before, followed by prayer and a cup of coffee in the morning.
