How's your Race going?

Runners train themselves to be focused on one thing-the finish line. They have one desire and they are not going to let what is going on in the stands or who is lagging behind to distract them.
Paul had the same sense. He, too, believed that you could not win a race by looking over the shoulder or glancing to the right or the left. You can't see what is ahead when you've got your headlight on the rear bumper.
Paul forgot his past glory, past mistakes, past grief, past everything. Paul refused to let his past keep him from reaching his goal. What are you doing in your race to claim the prize of a closer walk with God?
