“Godliness is the result of effort—focused effort that turns us away from useless distractions (1 Timothy 4:7a), and consistent effort that follows an ongoing regimen of spiritual exercises. Don’t lose steam after a few early morning ‘workouts.’” - Chris Anderson

....we might do better at spiritual disciplines if we had a tighter link between physical, athletic discipline and spiritual discipline. Not that we need to train like a Greek athlete, but the reminder that we need to "work up a little sweat" might cue us to understand the effort that is necesssary--and then "feel the burn" as our spiritual muscles are strengthened.
