Bible about running

 

1 Corinthians 9:24-27

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.

Hebrews 12:1
Let us run with perseverance. The race marked out for us.


Ecclesiastes 9:10
 Whatever you do, do well.


2 Corinthians 4:17
Our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!
