On Disciplining Our Bodies

Vince Lombardi, the legendary coach of the Green Bay Packers,  was one of only two men to ever coach three consecutive NFL championships.

He once said, “I’ve never known a man worth his salt who, in the long run, deep down in his heart, did not appreciate the grind and the discipline. There is something in good men that really yearns for discipline” (source).

As Paul disciplined his body and brought it into subjection (1 Corinthians 9:27), let us discipline our bodies, bringing them into subjection to the will of Christ.
