Johnny Cash could sure sing it. It was not a gospel hymn, but the principle is sure Scriptural.
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine
I keep my eyes wide open all the time
I keep the ends out for the tie that binds
Because you’re mine, I walk the line
Did you know the Bible mentions such a philosophy of life? It sure does, and here’s the concept for every serving Christian.
Every athlete exercises self-control in all things. They do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. So I do not run aimlessly; I do not box as one beating the air. But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.
Keep that body in check and don’t be sidelined.
Give it some thought.
Gary
