Favorite Bible Verses

Here is a bible verse that I came across today that fits for any athlete in training or even for someone trying to lose weight or more disciplined in serving God.

Hebrews 12:11-12 - “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak knees.” - NIV
 
 
Here are a list of bible verses that I have used over the past several years to help motivate me for training.  During Ironman Louisville training I used Col 3:23 and Phil 4:13.

Philippians 4:13 - I am able to do all thing through Him who strengthens me. - HCSB

Colossian 3:23 - Whatever you do, do it enthusiastically, as something done for the Lord and not for men - HCSB

Isaiah 40:31 - but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” - (NIV)

1 Timothy 4:8 - For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.

Happy training everyone.
