Daily Scripture

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

Daily Encouragement

In our society, physical fitness has much emphasis placed on it. People feel like they have to be a certain weight, have big muscles, or look a certain way. Fitness has its set of benefits for this life, but physical training has less value than spiritually training.


The Scripture says that godliness has value for all things since it has promises for the present life and the life to come. Our physical body will fade away one day, but our spiritual body will live for eternity with Christ. We must focus on Christ, what matters most in this life and the life to come, by growing in our relationship with God—following God, studying God’s Word, obeying God, worshiping God, serving God, and communicating with God daily. 

Daily Reflection

Are you focused on growing spiritually? Do you put more emphasis on physical training? Consider some things that you can add to your daily schedule to have more spiritual training in your life. Is it your prayer life, time in the Bible, or maybe you just need to set more time to worship God for how great He is? 

Daily Quote

"Our physical body will fade away one day, but our spiritual body will live for eternity with Christ."
