Monday, February 14 : First Epistle to the Corinthians 9,24-27.10,1-5.

Brethren, Know you not that they that run in the race, all run indeed, but one receiveth the prize? So run that you may obtain.
And every one that striveth for the mastery refraineth himself from all things. And they indeed that they may receive a corruptible crown: but we an incorruptible one.
I therefore so run, not as at an uncertainty: I so fight, not as one beating the air.
But I chastise my body and bring it into subjection: lest perhaps, when I have preached to others, I myself should become a castaway.
For I would not have you ignorant, brethren, that our fathers were all under the cloud: and all passed through the sea.
And all in Moses were baptized, in the cloud and in the sea:
And did all eat the same spiritual food:
And all drank the same spiritual drink: (And they drank of the spiritual rock that followed them: and the rock was Christ.)
But with most of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in the desert.
